@Ned just a reminder as I see you've been talking tcl/tk on c.l.py earlier 
today.

[issue19558] Provide Tcl/Tk linkage information for extension module builds

[Ned Deily]

New submission from Ned Deily:

In Issue 19490, Piet van Oostrum suggested:
I think future versions of Python should add the relevant information about 
how they are linked to Tcl/Tk in sysconfig. This would include the path of the 
include files, the shared libraries and the tcl files. Or a framework location 
on OS X if this is used. The setup.py for extensions that need to link to 
Tcl/Tk can then interrogate this information, and fall back to the current way, 
if it is not available.

Ned Deily replied:
Piet, yes, I've been thinking of how to do that.  Unfortunately, it can only 
be a hint since, in the case of an installer Python, there is no guarantee 
that the header files on the build machine are available on the installed 
machine in the same location or even at all.
