Just for kicks I took the challenge. Only difference is the interp I used is 8.7a6Tried in 8.6.11 and got exactly the same result as 8.7. Now what?
The results:
% package require Tk
8.7a6
% frame .f1
.f1
% frame .f1.f2
.f1.f2
% pack .f1 -in .f1.f2
can't put ".f1" inside ".f1.f2": would cause management loop
%
So it doesn't fly. Don't know if the error message is new in 8.7 vs. 8.6.x. In any case it sure makes sense.
