Bug 282006: x11-toolkits/tk90: backspace in text widget crashes interpreter
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=282006



--- Description ---
First: I'm using the package from latest.

Pressing backspace in a not empty text widget results in a
"kernel: pid 2770 (tclsh9.0), jid 0, uid 1001: exited on signal 11 (no core
dump - bad address)"

Simple code example:

-------------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/tclsh9.0
package require Tk
text .t
pack .t
-------------------------

Entering a char in a text widget and then pressing backspace crashes the Tcl/Tk
interpreter; Pressing backspace in an empty widget doesn't crash.
