I'm not sure, either -- it's been a while since I did Tcl programming,
but this change doesn't seem very invasive at least, and fixes this
specific problem, so I've applied it to Emacs 28.

This change was small enough to apply without assigning copyright to the
FSF, but for future patches you want to submit, it might make sense to
get the paperwork started now, so that subsequent patches can be applied
speedily.  Would you be willing to sign such paperwork?
