Either emerge it w/ USE="-tcl", or don't unmask tcl-8.5, or attach a patch to make it working w/ tcl-8.5; meanwhile it needs to stay as it is;

I have googled it a bit and checked this in other distributions and opensuse, mandriva and fedora just turn off tcl support because seems that it is not used by anything:
