I have experienced this problem when having tk installed with fink.
Personally i think that with fink and macports you can convert your system
in a mess of libraries. Tcl/Tk is an example of that, you can have
coexistent installations of it and at the end, not know which is the one
used. At this moment mozart runs on mac os x without needing neither fink or
macports an that hopefully simplify bug reporting.
