I suggest doing the link with:

  $ make EXTRALDFLAGS=-Wl,--verbose 2>&1 linker.log

And then study linker.log to see why it is missing the symbols in your
Tcl/Tk libraries (which ought to be in /usr/lib).  You can use a command like:

  $ nm libtk.so | grep Tcl_GetFile

to look for the symbol Tcl_GetFile.
