    Before I go updating tcl/tk, any thoughts on bumping our support to
    the latest revision, 8.5.11?

    I guess the same question applies to all the externals, actually
    (zlib, openssl, sqlite, bsddb, etc).  In the past we've typically
    bumped up our support to the latest version prior to beta, then
    stuck with that for the release's life, right?

    Semi-related note: is svn.python.org/externals still the primary
    repo for externals?  (I can't see a similarly named hg repo.)
