img::png bug in ActiveTcl on Mac OSX Leopard?

Hi,

am I the only one who has problems with img::png on OSX Leopard and
ActiveTcl 8.5?

try this:

$ teacup install Img
[lots of output skipped]
$ tclsh8.5
% package re img::png
1.3
% image create photo -file <any png file>

And then: nothing. tclsh hangs until I terminate it with Ctrl-c. When I
try it with tkcon, it crashes with the following error:

/usr/local/bin/wish8.5: line 2: 210 Segmentation fault "$(dirname
$0)/../../../Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.5/Resources/Wish.app/Contents/MacOS/Wish"
"$@"

Any hints? Do the ActiveState folks know this already?

TIA
Eckhard
