 *     Yes, Ousterhout has said that Tk4.0 is the "do-it-right" release
 * where he fixes fundamental problems that have existed since the
 * earliest releases of Tk.  Tk authors have been warned that existing
 * apps *will* break and that they should be rewritten for 4.0.  The
 * changes to Tcl are more minor.

Maybe I didn't include enough context, I thought I iterated it enough
already.  Anyway, I know Tk-4.0 is incompatible with Tk-3.6, that
wasn't the question, and it's pretty obvious looking at the version
numbers. :)

<question/>

Will the "more minor" changes in Tcl-7.4 break Tcl-7.3 scripts?

</question>

Someone please answer this with authority, why is it so hard to get an
answer to a simple question? ;)
