Ok, so I did upgrade tk. That went ok, sort of. In the process of
upgrading tk it butchered several other ports ("found 61 broken files, 5

don't fix it.)
chicken and egg. The update likely only broke *because* you do it so
infrequently. If you update regularly there is a lot less chance of
problems, as each update is much more incremental.
