I read sources for MacOS X on Tcl/Tk8.4.4. But I couldn't understand 
the reason of the trouble. Although I thought that the trouble is based 
on the fail to treat events properly, I couldn't find the code which is 
the reason of the trouble. 
I have no chance to use MacOS X. So I cannot test to find the reason. 
I have not enough time to fix the trouble before Ruby 1.8.0 release. 
I'm sorry but I'll not modify sources on Ruby1.8.0-release.
