Subject: [ruby-core:30550] Re: tk doesn't startup well in doze

Interesting.
With 1.9.1

#  module TkCore; RUN_EVENTLOOP_ON_MAIN_THREAD = true; end

That line causes no mystery background window, and things work as expected.

That line appears to have no effect (runs as normal, i.e. mystery
window, hang on exit).

With 1.9.3 I now get this (exits fine, with mystery window, but
running an app yields:)

irb(main):009:0> Tk.mainloop
RuntimeError: can't unset "__initail_state_of_rubytk__": no such variable

HTH.
