I tried your change with tcl/tk 8.4 and eveything still works
for me. I got curious about how you do this magic and noticed a
small error:

Oops, sorry, yes that is what I meant.

$ grep TCL_INCLUDE_SPEC /usr/lib/tcl8.4/tclConfig.sh
TCL_INCLUDE_SPEC='-I/usr/include/tcl8.4'
$ grep TCL_INC_DIR /usr/lib/tcl8.4/tclConfig.sh
TCL_INC_DIR='/usr/include/tcl8.4/tcl-private/generic'
$ grep TK_INC_DIR /usr/lib/tk8.4/tkConfig.sh
TK_INC_DIR='/usr/include/tcl8.4/tk-private/generic'
I believe Debian is the only distribution that allows multiple
versions of tcl/tk development packages to be installed, which
possibly broke tcl/tk in a subtle way. Keeps things interesting
for configure script writers...
