I have no idea why PIL is building against Tcl and Tk without linking 
to them, but I would suggest removing _imagingtk.so, the rest of PIL 
will build fine without it.  I don't have PIL source handy, so I can't 
tell you precisely where to disable building of it.  Probably in a file 
with "setup" in its name.
