Thanks for the response I received.

I found tcl 8.4.6, tk 8.4.6 and python 2.3.4 all understand
WITH_THREADS, which I had not specified.  (Everything worked before,
without it set.)

Recompiling tcl and python with that set in /etc/make.conf seems to
have fixed the problem.  I'm not sure which pkg was the real problem.

But tk is broken, in that it won't compile WITH_THREADS, barfing on
-pthread.  I'll check for PRs, and raise one if necessary.
