Well spotted Martin: I didn't see this one...

The funniest thing is that it actually works (well, at least using a canvas 
window instead of packing):

----------------------------
from Tkinter import *

root = Tk()

cnv = Canvas(root, width=400, height=400)
cnv.pack(fill=BOTH,expand=1)

scroll = Scrollbar(cnv, command=cnv.xview, orient=HORIZONTAL)
cnv.create_window(200, 400, anchor=S, window=scroll, width=400)
cnv.configure(xscrollcommand=scroll.set, scrollregion=(0, 0, 1000, 1000))

root.mainloop()
----------------------------

One of the most useless script I ever wrote... Sorry: it's a bit late here...
