Since Ubuntu uses several "xhost +..." lines in its default
configuration, one could argue it should have compiled TCL/Tk with the
TK_NO_SECURITY flag set, otherwise Tk's "send" IPC breaks, which is
really what I suspect this bug report is all about.

Even better would be to patch in Tk the "xhost" security test to allow
the three (apparently harmless and useful ones) xhost exceptions in the
Ubuntu configuration to pass through without an alert.
