There is a fault in the Windows kbskit - you've used the HEAD version
of vfs with the last beta version of Tcl. Unfortunately this
combination crashes when exiting Tk. The fault has been solved in the
Tcl code since the last beta tag at which point I committed the vfs
code. For pre 8.6b2 it is better to use rechan than the core reflected
channel implementation. I did not put a explicit version test for
8.6b2 in because once 8.6 is released all these alphas and betas
should disappear.

The code in question is in vfs/vfslib.tcl - [package vsatisfies
[package provide Tcl] 8.6]. Either roll back slightly the vfs project
or make the check here more explicit, for instance: [package
vsatisfies [package provide Tcl] 8.6b1.1]

Apologies,
