Further research confirms that Tk does not work _at_all_, which supports the view that an upgraded version of Tk is needed to work with Xorg.
The Tk interpreter is called "wish". Trying to run wish produces the following:-
tony@ubuntu:~/tcltk$ wish Application initialization failed: this isn't a Tk applicationunknown color name "Black" % tony@ubuntu:~/tcltk$
Another way to invoke Tk is via the tcl interpreter, thus:-
tony@ubuntu:~/tcltk$ tclsh % package require Tk this isn't a Tk applicationunknown color name "Black" %
which does not work either.
Ergo, I believe Tk does not work at all in the Dapper 6.06 release.
