The old 8.4 win32 tcl/tk was unmaintained and broken in many ways, as discussed at length on these lists, and now it is gone and isn't coming back. There is no way to keep the 8.4 version because it would conflict with the 8.5 version now used by everything in the distro, and you can't mix-and-match these. Here's my advice: it would be a better use of your time to install xinit and accustom yourself to the wonders of X rather than hopelessly trying to find a way to continue living in the past.
