      I have tcl/tk 8.6.0 installed here. Both Python versions below
      are build from source.

      I'm using LANG=en_US.iso88591 here if that matters.

      When opening a file in Idle with
      python-3.3.1 revision: c08bcf5302ec

      or

      python-3.4.0a0 (default:3a110a506d35) (HG version)

      I get

      Python is not ready for Tcl/Tk 8.6 yet.
