 Before I go updating tcl/tk, any thoughts on bumping our support to
 the latest revision, 8.5.11?
 I guess the same question applies to all the externals, actually
 (zlib, openssl, sqlite, bsddb, etc). In the past we've typically
 bumped up our support to the latest version prior to beta, then
 stuck with that for the release's life, right?
 Semi-related note: is svn.python.org/externals still the primary
 repo for externals? (I can't see a similarly named hg repo.)
