OK, I did try tk.h, and it builds without warnings or errors, but I haven't
yet been able to test it at run time (see below).

Thanks very much for this effort.  The compile warnings are indeed gone,
and most of the linker errors.  However, there is still one left (presumably
because plplot_ccmap means different things in xwin.c and tkwin.c).

As soon as this is sorted out, I look forward to some run-time testing.
