  1. icomment:
    At least a contributing factor to the problem
    appears to be confusion over the proper scope
    of font names as a Tcl_ObjType.  Should a particular
    meaning of a font name have control over just one
    screen?  Or one interp?  Or one "application" ?
    
    It appears that an intrep of a "font" value is
    getting used in one Tk "application" when it was
    set in (and stored in the fontCache of) another
    Tk "application".  Later on attempting to tear down
    twice what was only constructed once causes the abort.
    
    Some advice from the designer(s) of the font system
    would be useful.
