I was able to reproduce the the problem with an older version of libX11 this way:

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libasan.so.4 /usr/bin/wish

Since i have not installed the lastest version yet, can someome
test this ?
I guess a yes/no would help here.

I run wish (for 'gitk') many times a day and haven't seen any thing
amiss, so it could be something in your environment causing trouble.

The current master branch of libX11 has a likely fix for this issue.
