[tex-live] problems with tlmgr --gui in Mac OS X

[Artemio Gonzalez Lopez]

"tlmgr --gui update" (or any other action, for that matter) makes perl  
crash  with a bus error in Mac OS X 10.5.4 (on my 3.06 GHz iMac,  
running the TeXLive 2008-07-18 distribution updated via rsync); see  
the crash report below for more details. FWIW, the perl/tk  
distribution I'm using was installed via MacPorts (it's the p5-tk  
package).

Thanks everybody,

Artemio
