Well -- all things being equal, it ought to be that simple, however,
on looking at the (1.4) _tkinter.c source, I see that you had to 
add some Mac specific stuff to the import already, to be able to
find resources properly. I don't know if the "weak import" trick
would have and interactions with that code, but I'll look into
it if I can.
