ERROR: setUpModule (test.test_tcl)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\buildbot.python.org\3.4.kloth-win64\build\lib\test\test_tcl.py", line 685, in setUpModule
    tcl = Tcl()

    self.tk = _tkinter.create(screenName, baseName, className, interactive, wantobjects, useTk, sync, use)
_tkinter.TclError: Can't find a usable init.tcl in the following directories:

This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed properly.


----------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this a test suite defect, or there is an issue with using Tkinter on Windows? In latter case this is a release blocker.
