[issue8716] test_tk/test_tkk_guionly fails on OS X if run from buildbot slave daemon -- crashes Python

Victor, I don't understand what your patch is trying to accomplish.  The problem is not that Tkinter isn't built; the problem is simply at execution time.  Yes, you'll see exactly the same behavior if you are logged in via ssh and the usename you are running under is not logged in as the main GUI user.  The solution is to not run Tkinter stuff in that situation.
