you're using a version of Tk that's newer than your Tkinter; that "??"
you're seeing how really recent versions of Tk represent an "undefined
integer value"...

this has been fixed in Python 2.3, so you can either upgrade Python
or link against an older Tk.

(or modify Tkinter.py slightly, adding try/except clauses around the
problem spots in Tkinter.py)
