I'm not trying to discourage you to do the complete fix (for these two
problems), but this API was made public only in tcl 8.3.1 as can be
seen at http://tcl.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tcl/tcl/ChangeLog?revision=1.226&view=markup&pathrev=core-8-3-1

Still, the "call" fix should be backported to python 2.6 as it doesn't
depend on changing supported tcl versions and is also more severe.
