I hadn't realised that Tk 8.5 existed until now.

Right. That's because of this:

#if TK_MAJOR_VERSION==8 && TK_MINOR_VERSION==4
    CONST char *Tk_SetAppName(Tk_Window, CONST char *);
#else
    char *Tk_SetAppName(Tk_Window, char *);
#endif

It should probably be:

#if TK_MAJOR_VERSION==8 && TK_MINOR_VERSION>=4 || TK_MAJOR_VERSION>8
    CONST char *Tk_SetAppName(Tk_Window, CONST char *);
#else
    char *Tk_SetAppName(Tk_Window, char *);
#endif

I.e. it should apply to Tk 8.4 and upwards, not just 8.4.

However, that will not be the only problem; someone will also need to
add tkInt8.5.h and tkIntDecls8.5.h, and modify the top of togl.c
accordingly.
