So XF4 needs tcl,tk too, not just XF3?
Which platform were you building other than i386? XF4 is the entire X tree, both X.org and XF86v3. On i386, when you build X, you build the entire X system, X.org's and XF86v3 servers. "pick and chose" building what you build is not supported, thus you always need tcl and tk on i386. Nick.
