In the case of _tkinter (and I think readline, and possibly one or two 
others) this is a bit of a problem, because I've built the binary 
installers in an ad-hoc way: I built the modules from source during a 
normal Python build and then manually stuffed them into a tarfile.

But of course you could simply grab the tarfile and extract it in the 
right place. I think if you're in / when you unpack the tarfile 
everything will work fine.
