Seems like a window got its name changed from one version to the next.
(.vTcl.con was renamed .vTcl.tkCon)
Try opening your ~/.vtclrc in a text editor, and remove any reference
to .vTcl.con like set vTcl(geometry,vTcl.con) ....
Then save ~/.vtclrc, and try starting vTcl.
Or, remember your preferences, then delete ~/.vtclrc and start vTcl,
then reset the preferences to your liking.
