+ * This is an attempt to work around a problem with Tcl/Tk.  The public Tk C
+ * api doesn't provide a way to get at the compiled graphics subsystem choice
+ * without trying to initalize a Tk window, which won't work in headless
+ * configurations such as build farms.  So instead we introspect looking for
+ * the key printable strings that can tell us what we've got.
