Description
How to reproduce:
Install python 2.7.13 using MacPorts
Install tk +quartz variant using MacPorts
Install py27-tkinter using MacPorts
Start python and execute:
import Tkinter Tkinter.Tk()
This will result in "Abort trap: 6"
This process has worked on OSX10.11 and also fairly recently on OSX10.12.
Removing "--enable-aqua" from the configuration arguments gets rid of the crash but disables other necessary functionality.
-x11 variant doesn't crash.

This seems to work now.
This would make sense if Tk 8.6.7-rc worked.
Tk is past 8.6.7.
Please feel free to reopen if there is still a problem.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
It is still not clear to me what causes the crash but using the 8.6.7-rc candidate packages as described here: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/12808 fixes the problem.
