I assume itâs because gtk2 is broadcasting it to all windows;
which normally should cause no problems.

No memory boundaries are being run over. Tk reacts badly to the
reception of that command (atom? not sure about the X11
terminology).

In other words, this *may* be a bug in gtk2, but it *definitely*
is a bug in Tk.

Just another reason to use gtk2 rather than Tkâ :-)
