You have to choose if you want the Aqua or the X11 version. If you  
choose for
Aqua you have to set the TCLTK_LIBS and TCLTK_CPPFLAGS to point to the
framework. But observe the R GUI does not work with Aqua Tcl/Tk, and  
neither
does tkrplot. They do work with the X11 version of Tcl/Tk, if you can  
stand that.
You can have both installed (the X11 version in /usr/local).
