well, that only means that wish was linked against 8.0,
not that _tkinter.so is linked against it...

but alright, try setting TK_LIBRARY and TCL_LIBRARY to
point to the configuration files, e.g:

    % export TCL_LIBRARY=/usr/local/lib/tcl8.0/library
    % export TK_LIBRARY=/usr/local/lib/tk8.0/library
