 Replying to [ticket:1843 syntaxerrormmm]:
 > OS: !ArchLinux (rolling release)

 with the attached error.

 removed from the TK toolkit (8.6.0).

 Within !Tcl/Tk,

 {{{
 TkCopyAndGlobalEval(interp, command);
 }}}

 has been replaced with

 {{{
 Tcl_EvalEx(interp, command, -1, TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL);
 }}}

 see

 http://rkeene.org/projects/tcl/tk.fossil/ci/bd1165a06d?sbs=0

 Maybe the equivalent

 {{{
 Tcl_EvalEx(cancel_interp, cancel_script, -1, TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL);
 }}}

 works for GRASS 6? `Tcl_EvalEx` exists in previous versions of !Tcl/Tk
 (8.5 + 8.4).
