You can use tcl/tk 8.3 with Insight (unix does), but be aware that it is a 
little unstable. There are problems with Tk8.3 on cygwin, and no one has 
tracked it down.

I recommend getting Insight 5.2.1 or newer and reverting the tcl stuff to 
8.0.3, as described on the Insight homepage, 
http://sources.redhat.com/insight .

Are you sure you're in the src/{tcl,tk,libgui} directory you just checked 
out?  The method posted on the web page won't apply directly to a 
downloaded snapshot -- you'll have to check out the sources you want, or 
at least check out the the "naked-tcl", "naked-tk", "naked-itcl", and 
"naked-libgui" modules. Follow the procedure on the web page using these 
directories. When done, clobber your snapshot's tcl, tk, itcl, and libgui 
directories with these.
