Summary: tkinter without X11 patch

Initial Comment:
This patch is a follow up to patch #443669.  It prevents the attempt to build
the tkinter module unless the X header files can be found.  I developed this
patch with Cygwin in mind but it should work for other platforms too. I tested
this patch on Red Hat 7.1 without any ill effects.  However, if one is concerned
about breaking other Unix platforms, then the following guard:

if platform == 'cygwin'

can be added.  I'm willing to redo the patch, if this is deemed necessary.

To apply the patch, use the following procedure:

$ # save the patch to /tmp/tkinter.patch
$ # change directory to the top of the Python source tree
$ patch </tmp/tkinter.patch

This version of the patch includes the requested Cygwin guard.

I think I'd prefer this patch with the platform=='cygwin' 
guard.
