_tkinter now raises ValueError("character U+10ffff is above the range 
(U+0000-U+FFFF) allowed by Tcl").

I consider that U+10ffff in "character U+10ffff" is enough to specify that it 
is a Unicode character. Even if you don't understand Unicode, you can at least 
computer numbers (0x10ffff is not in range [0x0000; 0xFFFF]) ;-)
