GCL's configure should autodetect the presence of tk development files
at build time.  In other words, you need tk8.4-dev and dependencies
installed before configuring and building GCL, otherwise you get the
string "gcl-tk not made" in the build output.  

If you are on Debian and want a quick test, you should be able to
'apt-get install gcl', which will pull in tk automatically, and point
tkconnect to the gcltksrv therein.  tkconnect can take arguments
specifying the path to gcltksrv:

     tkconnect &key host display can-rsh gcltksrv

I prefer (reset-sys-paths....) as in my posted example, as this sets
the load-path and related variables as needed as well.

Take care,
