Grab a snapshot and use that. I've ripped tcl, tk, and itcl out of our 
sources, so you can build using a system-supplied variety. You're going 
to run into other problems, though, with loading some widget set. And I 
think there was a packaging problem with one of the -devel packages that 
I had to work around. Or something. It has been quite a while since I 
looked at this. I'm still basically using F8.

Nonetheless, report back any problems here and we can work though them.

PS. You'll need tcl, tk, itcl, iwidgets and their -devel RPMs installed.
