-This was a new feature as of Tcl7.6b1 and as such I'll started with
-a clean slate. I currently know of no reproducable bugs. I often
-get vague reports - but nothing I've been able to confirm. Let
-me know what bugs you find!
-
-The Macintosh version of Tcl passes most all tests in the Tcl
-test suite. Slower Macs may fail some tests in event.test whose
-timing constraints are too tight. If other tests fail please report
-them.

-Known bugs in the current release.
-
-* With the socket code you can't use the "localhost" host name. This
- is actually a known bug in Apple's MacTcp stack. However, you can
- use [info hostname] whereever you would have used "localhost" to
- achive the same effect.
-
-* Most socket bugs have been fixed. We do have a couple of test cases
- that will hang the Mac, however, and we are still working on them.
- If you find additional test cases that show crashes please let us
- know!
-
-* In Tcl 8.2, the new Regexp code seems to be more deeply recursive than
-the older version in Tcl8.0. As a result, I have had to increase the Stack
-size of Tcl to 1Meg. If you are not doing regexps with many subexpressions,
-this is probably more stack than you will need. You can relink with the
-stack set to 512K, and you will be fine for most purposes.
-* This regexp problem is fixed in Tcl8.3. If you are going to do complex
-regexp's, it is probably a good idea to keep the stack size big. But normal
-regexps will not cause crashes.
-
-* The "clock scan -base" command does not work. The epoch is wrong.
-* The file mtime command does not work when setting the time, it is off
-by 4 years.
