It is a bit of a hassle, but you can build your own Release mode Tcl/Tk; there are instructions in the newly clarified (hopefully) PCbuild/readme.txt.

As far as upgrading our included Tcl/Tk, I've been thinking the same thing since we started including 8.5.15 with the Mac installers; I think we should ship the same version on any platform where we ship it at all.

I'll do some testing with 8.5.15 as soon as I get a chance.  I don't have enough experience with svn (or access to svn.python.org, as far as I can tell) to actually do the upgrade if we decide to do it, though.
