I attempted to rebuild tcltk first, but that didn't change anything as you
suspected.
However, rebuilding python2.7 also failed with the following error:
Python build finished, but the necessary bits to build these modules were
not found:
bsddb185 dl imageop
linuxaudiodev ossaudiodev spwd
sunaudiodev
To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the
module's name.
(Fink package build should have 7 missing)
Failed to build these modules:
_tkinter
make: *** [sharedmods] Error 1
### execution of /tmp/fink.E11bI failed, exit code 2
### execution of /tmp/fink.pV8XF failed, exit code 2

I also attempted to rebuild tcltk--shlibs as Hanspeter recommended,
however, rebuilding python after that still failed with the above error.
A search through all the setup.py files in /sw/* for those 7 modules
returned empty so they don't appear to be present there. From that list of
modules, the only ones that look to be important for my purposes are
bsddb185 and dl.
Could it be that since it can't find dl, that it is unable to load the
dlopen() function? Is there a way to install those modules independently?
Maybe I can just download a fresh copy of python? Is there a recommended
way to do that?
