You are correct: a Tk application works if and only if the Python 
icon shows up in the  toolbar.

I tried that and the answer is indeed wrong:
% ./tkshbang.py
running sitecustomize.py
/usr/local/bin/python

where tkshbang.py is as follows:

#!/Applications/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/python
"""A minimal test of Tk"""
import sys
import Tkinter
print sys.executable
root = Tkinter.Tk()
text  = Tkinter.Button(root, text="Test")
text.pack()
root.mainloop()

Any suggestions on what to try next? I suppose I may have screwed up 
the build somehow, but I thought I was careful to follow the 
instructions in the /Mac/OSX/README.
