I can reproduce that test failure with Tk 8.6.10 on macOS, along with a few 
others. I believe various small things have changed in Tk somewhere between 
8.6.8 and 8.6.10 in ways that affect some of the Python Tk gui tests, like 
test_tk and test_ttk_guionly. Some of our tests are pretty brittle with regard 
to Tk behavior; they captured how a particular version of Tk worked without 
necessarily a guarantee on the Tk side that the observed behavior wouldn't 
change. Someone needs to go through and make the tests work with all recent 
versions of Tk 8.6.x and someone should also get at least some buildbots 
running with 8.6.10 and really running the gui tests.
