I've started working on multiarch Tcl/Tk and already uploaded tcl8.6 into
experimental (it's in NEW now). I'm planning to upload tcl8.5 and tcl8.4
in a few days, and then tk*.*. There are only two essential differences
between your and my approaches: 1) I ship all Tcl stuff in tcl8.6-lib package
(which should make it work with embedded interpreters, though it's untested
yet); 2) I've added /usr/lib/tcltk/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH) to the Tcl package
search path (this helps with multiarch-aware packages like Tk).

Cheers!
