It depends: since yesterday two winGRASS versions are online at
http://grass.itc.it/grass5/binary/windows_cygnus/

   o winGRASS with Xserver requirement: wingrass_xserver/ 
   o winGRASS without Xserver requirement: wingrass_generic/ (eventually more
     limited in functionality) 

If you are refering to winGRASS with Xserver requirement, you have to
install the package xtcltk8.0.5-CYGWIN....

If you are refering to winGRASS without Xserver requirement, the
"tcltkgrass" is not present because there are limitations in the underlying
tcl/tk libraries. You may try to install "ActiveTcl" to overcome the
problem:

eventually then it will be working. Please inform us about your results
when trying ActiveTcl.
