A while ago I started getting a floating point exception from test_tk in the tip in all active versions, but I'm only now getting around to reporting it.  I've tracked this down to the tests introduced in issue 19085, which it looks like revealed some other tk issues.

Gentoo has some patches against stock 8.6.1; I don't know if they are the source of the failure or not.  I haven't updated the gentoo buildbots for a while, and since they are passing the tests it could well be that it was my upgrade from tk 8.6.0 to 8.6.1 on my dev box that triggered the failures.  The timing of that upgrade is somewhat after the patch was committed, but I hadn't been running the test suite regularly during that interval so I can't pinpoint it to one or the other.

There are also other test failures, by the way, but I'm not seeing the tracebacks because python crashes.

Here is the faulthandler traceback from 3.3:

test_indicatoron (tkinter.test.test_tkinter.test_widgets.MenubuttonTest) ... Fatal Python error: Floating point exception
