>From your prompt, it seems you are on Unix based system. make would have informed you about _tkinter not built.

If you are on ubuntu, do a sudo apt-get install tk-dev  and install tk-dev package and its dependencies.
And then do the ./configure;make;sudo make install 
python3.1 will have the tkinter libraries and the _tkinter module installed. If on another distro, just make sure you have latest tk-dev libraries (headers) installed.

I don't see any other problem here, so I am closing this issue.
