Well, naturally the prime purpose is to demonstrate the crash. However, 
if you use 8.5.11 or if you comment out the menu-related stuff then you 
also will see the button text get larger. I only use the label to access 
the option database.

In any case, I hope this is small enough to be useful for tracking down 
the problem. I'm wondering if you or somebody else might be able to 
translate this into tcl? My tcl is weak, but I'll do it if necessary. I 
assume the Tcl/Tk folks would be much more willing to pay attention if 
it was pure tcl.
