[issue10907] OS X installer: warn users of buggy Tcl/Tk in OS X 10.6

This looks good Ned. My main concern is that we make it clear from the *Download* page that users who want IDLE to "just work" (even on 10.6) they should install the 32 bit version.

Noting that Activestate Tcl/Tk 8.5 is a *requirement* for Tkinter/IDLE with the 64bit (10.6) build sounds wise. Just putting it in the installer README isn't enough as it is too late. Obviously fine to put it in the README as *well*.

Having a page linked to from the download page with up to date info on Mac OS X 10.6 is good. You'll probably want website commit rights to maintain this Ned. You can get it by emailing the pydotorg mailing list and preferably should also join pydotorg-www. :-)
