Comment(by mdippery@…):
I re-examined this issue and found that while the problem cropped up when
I launched MacPorts' `wish`, the issue *is* with `tcl`, not `tk`. The
problem is that the `--disable-corefoundation` flag is passed to
`./configure` when building `tcl`, but building without CoreFoundation
support breaks the `+quartz` variant of `tk`.
I'm not sure why `tcl` is built without CoreFoundation support. I did find
[http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-
dev/2009-October/010420.html this post] which describes the issue, but
clearly fixing *that* issue also breaks usage of `tcl` with `tk +quartz`.
I'm posting a patch that fixes the problem, although perhaps it'd be
better to allow `tcl` to have a CoreFoundation-enabled variant? I'll let
the maintainers think about it.
