[issue33257] Race conditions in Tkinter with non-threaded Tcl

Yes.

In tcl.vcxproj, tk.vcxproj and tix.vcxproj, there are parameters named like TclOpts that are passed as OPTS arg to the lib's makefiles. For Tcl 8.5, you need to pass "threads" to build with threads; for 8.6, "nothreads" to build without.

Also, in tcltk.props, the resulting DLL/LIB names are hardcoded with or without the 't' suffix. You'll need to fix that if you wish to switch the Tcl flavor.
