Summary: UCS-4 tcl not found on SUSE 10.1 with tcl and tk 8.4.12-14

Initial Comment:
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:  UCS-4 tcl is not found during
configuration on a SUSE 10.1 (x86-32) system where
tk-8.4.12-14 and tcl-8.4.12-14 have been installed as
part of the SUSE installation (and visible/managed by
YaST).  This results in _tkinter and dependent codes
not being built.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR:  The installed tcl/tk packages
(provided as part of the SUSE 10.1 install) should have
been detected successfully and _tkinter and related
packages should have been configured for build.

TO REPRODUCE:  Install SUSE 10.1 on x86 hardware,
taking care to ensure that tcl and tk packages are
included in that install.  Download, expand, and
attempt to configure Python 2.5 release candidate 1
(Python-2.5c1.tar.bz2).  Note that the following occurs
during configuration and that _tkinter is subsequently
not built:
checking for UCS-4 tcl... no
