I have tried your example on both OSX and Windows and it is giving me
the required behaviour. When I click the Exit button on the child
windows I get a message on the console saying 'fred is being
destroyed'. The message isn't always immediate but it does appear as a
result of clicking the Exit button on the $tl windows.
I was using perl 5.8.8 and Tk 804.028 on the Mac and perl 5.10.0 and Tk
804.028 on Windows.
HTH,
Matt
