No real surprise there. gis.m uses $GRASS_WISH, while NVIZ is a
"custom wish"[1]. Each "wish" will use whichever Tcl/Tk libraries it
was linked against.

[1] A hybrid Tcl/Tk+C program is basically a copy of wish (the source
code for which is normally installed in /usr/lib/tk<version>/tkAppInit.c)
which adds some new commands during the intialisation step (Tcl_AppInit).
