After a sleepless night and a bunch of searching up and down the
internet I finally have a working
version of a native 64bit windows insight! Hooray!
itcl/itk4 do not work very well at present. So I made myself a chimera
version of itcl 3.4.1/itk 3.3 that (appears to) work fine with tcl/tk 8.6.
And voila: Insight starts up and appears to work!
