The next patch (as suggested by the tk developers) should suffice to allow
tk to work with the latest Xorg . Dunno if you have to recompile any binary
extension. FWIW, tkabber don't use any compiled tk extension which
requires event handling, none at least in pkgsrc. It will use tktray located
in http://sw4me.com/wiki/Tktray to allow docking in the system tray, and is
IIRC the only compiled tk extension tkabber use which bind to events.

Please try the patch and let me know if it works.
