[New-bugs-announce] [issue42759] Take into acount a Tcl interpreter when compare variables and fonts

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpython at gmail.com>:

Currently instances of tkinter.Variable and tkinter.font.Font are considered equal when they have the same name even if they belong to different Tcl interpreters. But Tcl interpreters are isolated, and variables and fonts in different interpreters refer to different things.

There is note in the docstring of tkinter.Variable.__eq__ about taking into account master. The following PR fixes this omission.
