Tom, I have to apologize profusely.  How often do I submit a bug report that actually contains useful information on
thebug, never to hear from anyone.  And now, I submit a bug report that is less than useful and someone actually cares. 

But I am ashamed to say, that it would be almost impossible for me to replicate this as I'd have to remove the new Tcl,
installthe old Tcl and try again, and well, I unfortunately just don't have the time. 

Basically it looked like they were symbols involved in initialization of the Tcl Main, but more, I cannot say.

Abashed,

Jerry
