Where is the bug?
Please ask on R-help for help installing R, after reading the R-admin
manual to which the INSTALL file refers you.

You need to read tests/Examples/tcltk-Ex.Rout.fail to find out.
My guess is that your Tcl/Tk installation is not complete/compatible with
your compilers/.... You could build without Tcl/Tk if you don't want it.

Yes. This is in the R-admin manual, which the INSTALL file asks you to
read. It discusses Tcl/Tk compatibility issues too, and how to build
without it.
