[Pythonmac-SIG] OS 10.6 tkinter

After a bit of a struggle I managed to get PIL, reportlab and its extensions all 
built and surviving their tests. This is on Intel OS 10.6.2 with the original 
python 2.6.1.

Now I want to make use of a simple Tkinter+Pmw application which is running fine 
under windows and linux, but segfaults on 10.6.2

First off what kind of debugging can I expect to accomplish with 10.6.2? Does it 
do core dumps etc etc? I have a giant textual dump of threads etc etc, but that 
doesn't seem immediately useful to me as a non-mac person

presumably this is some Tkinter/tk/tcl problem; any one have any ideas?
