Why not use the built-in message box function? This will then provide the correct system defined look (or a suitable dialog on unix).

package require Tk
proc main {message {title "Question?"}} {
	wm withdraw .
	set r [tk_messageBox -icon question -type yesno -title $title \
			   -message $message]
	exit [expr {$r eq "yes" ? 0 : 1}]
}
eval [linsert $argv 0 main]

would seem to be equivalent. I put up an image of the two (standard messagebox on top) at http://www.patthoyts.tk/screenshots/happy.png
