Well, I needed the 'latest and greatest' Python for some other uses,
and built it myself because this system is Fedora Core 3 at heart.
The distribution's Python has, among other things,
/usr/lib/python2.3/lib-tk/Tkinter.py
As far as I can tell, each Python keeps to itself.

Again, as far as I can tell, it is not that tkinter is missing. It is
that the compiled version of Python does not reference it at all.
