Hello,

I have done a bit of digging and found out that this behavior appeared in python version 3.6.0 alpha2. I think it is related to bpo-27025 
(https://bugs.python.org/issue27025) that changed the way that widgets are named. It is my impression that the code that determines which checkbutton should have its appearance changed has not been changed accordingly. 

I also observe that if I use variable=tk.IntVar() as additional argument to tk.Checkbutton, normal behavior is restored. This is the easiest work around.
