I don't understand enough about how your system works
or what exactly Tk is doing that stuffs it up to be
able to recommend anything.

Am I right in thinking that a problem can only
occur if a tasklet switch occurs between the time
the local variable is created and the time it's
used? If the same tasklet is running both times,
the stack should be back in it's right place.
So maybe some sort of restriction on when a switch
can occur would help? Not sure what sort, though.
