IMO we should at least attempt to support Tcl/Tk 8.3 - 8.5.

For 8.3 there is just the one problem with v.digit, AFAIK.

For 8.5 it apparently mostly works, if it is just a few little issues
which are not so hard to fix, then we should try and solve them.
i.e. we should at least look into 8.5 problems, it is probably just 1-5
lines of code to be adjusted, and that's not a huge drain on
development resources.
