2.3b2 on Windows will ship with Tcl/Tk 8.4.3. Note: this still didn't 

fix the hangs on Win98SE when starting IDLE via "python" from a DOS box,
but did appear to make them harder to provoke.  I closed that bug report
as being hopeless (and if someone wants to open it again, don't dare
assign it to me again <0.1 wink>).

Windows
-------
- The Windows installer ships with Tcl/Tk 8.4.3 (upgraded from 8.4.1).
- The installer always suggested that Python be installed on the C:
drive, due to a hardcoded "C:" generated by the Wise installation
wizard. People with machines where C: is not the system drive
