Here's how I get the correct application dialog in the 'about myapp" menu:

self.createcommand('tkAboutDialog', self.aboutProgram)
     #dialog for 'about program'
     def aboutProgram(self):
         self.tk.call('tk::mac::standardAboutPanel')
(You can substitute any Python bits here that you want--the key is to 
map the 'tkAboutDialog' command to some kind of Python function or method.)
