I got two answers, one saying that it works for him, the other saying that the
problem probably is that p5-Tk needs to be updated to reflect tk8.

I have since done the same installation on a "pure" machine where everything
is installed via /usr/src or /usr/pkgsrc. Here p5-Tk works just fine.

This made me think that my original problem is probably caused by the fact 
that on that machine I don't use the ancient perl 5.004_04 provided with
pkgsrc, but a newer perl from the 5.005 series (either 5.005_03 or 5.005_60).
This explanation does not cause any immediate consequences for pkgsrc.

On the other hand, p5-Tk should actually be upgraded from p5-Tk-402.002 to
the current version, which is p5-Tk-800.015 or thereabout.

I actually tried to switch the version numbers in the Makefile and it
"just works".
