The Python distributed with OSX is 2.x. If you want to use Python 3.x and
install it from the python.org <http://python.org> dmg, the same problem
arises (the issue that began
this thread). Apparently, all versions for OSX must be installed by
compiling
from source if Tk is to be used.

Also true.

Apple ships Tk 8.4 mainly for backwards compatibility, and the MacPython maintainers target this version for Tkinter to link to, also for backwards compatibility.

I believe ActiveState's Python distribution supports 8.5 on the Mac, by the way.
