I'd like to update Tcl/Tk to 8.6.16, which will be released in about week or so. Builds and tests with release candidates are fine and all ports are ready to go.
There are a few potential incompatibilities. They don't look worrisome but problems with software that uses Tcl/Tk might not surface right away. So I'm wondering if I could just do the update when 8.6.16 comes out and we'll see about any fallout? I can put the list of potential incompatibilities in the commit message. These are the relevant potential incompatibilities from the previous two releases. 8.6.16 is a bugfix release, without potential incompatibilities. 8.6.14 * [TIP 402] revise path normalization for x-platform UNC path support * Harmonize Tk's parse of numbers (screen distance, etc) with Tcl * Iconlist ignores options db for fg text color; affects dialogs * [encoding convertfrom] handling of incomplete code sequences * Harmonize handling of ~ in paths across platforms. * Fix menu clone binding misbehavior, menu-20.1[2-6]. 8.6.15 * Invoke binding scripts for events with detail field NotifyInferior * Tcl_NewObjectInstance() errors on namespace re-use. Breaks Itcl 4.2 * TCL_PACKAGE_PATH change from Tcl list to platform path convention Stu
