This is a bit misleading. Python supports compiling with Tcl 8.6 and
Tkinter (and _tkinter) will work (or at least should work) with it, what
is not supported are tcl/tk versions below 8.3.1.

I'm ok with with patching setup.py to add this "support" for everyone
else, I have compiled python with tcl 8.6 before but didn't bother
suggesting this change in setup.py. Anyway, just came here to try to
clear this up and say there is nothing in python saying it doesn't
support tcl 8.6 (hope this helps anyone that got confused and thought
tcl 8.6 wasn't really supported by python).
