Comment (by nad@…):
Actually, I believe the Gestalt version check is non-fatal.
The critical issue that causes the crash is a now faulty version check in
Tk's macosx/tkMacOSXInit.c which results in the message:
`Mac OS X 10.10000 or later required !`
I have opened a `Tk` bug for this problem:
https://core.tcl.tk/tk/tktview?name=1d37c3e166. Note that this problem
applies to all users of Cocoa Tk (`+quartz` variant), like Python's `IDLE`
or other `Tkinter`-based applications. They are all totally broken.
However, this issue does not affect the `+x11` variant of Tk.
