There is something I don't understand about -dev tk.  If you try executing

examples/c/x01c -dev tk

you get an error

bad window path name "examples/c/x01c"

However,

./examples/c/x01c -dev tk

and

cd examples/c
./x01c -dev tk

both work without issues. What is magic about the leading period in
pathnames for Tcl/Tk?  Can we make -dev tk immune to this issue?
