When you recompile Python in a new unicode mode, you then need to recompile all extensions (such as Numpy), since an extension compiled for one mode will not work with the other. Annoying if you have a lot of extensions.
However, I don't think that UCS4 mode is required for Tkinter -- it could just be that the Tkinter you have compiled was compiled against a Python of a different unicode mode. (RHEL builds its python packages with --enable-unicode=UCS4, so if you're using the RH package for Tkinter with a self compiled Python, that may be what you're running into.)
