This wouldn't require tweaks to C code, just to a distutils setup.py script (the one in the root of the python distribution). The final version should add a new flag to the configure script as well, but I could add flag later on when the setup.py patch uses a global variable to check if it should build one _tkinter.so or a number of them.
