Currently Mac installer can create only Tk 8.5 compatible Tkinter, even if Tcl/Tk 8.6 is installed.

Unofficial distributions doesn't seem to have problems with Tk 8.6 on Mac. I think official installer should be upgraded as well.

Best option for users would be bundling Tcl/Tk 8.6 with installer, just like Windows installer does.

Thanks for the suggestion.  Moving the OS X installers to using Tcl/Tk 8.6 is the subject of Issue15663.
