I have a strong suspicion that this just plain isn't going to work.

You can try building Tile against 8.4.1 headers;
use 8.4.1 headers and -DNO_PRIVATE_HEADERS;
or use 8.4.1 headers, -DNO_PRIVATE_HEADERS, and take out -DUSE_TK_STUBS.

If you can successfully build a .DLL with any of these three
approaches, and an 8.4.1 tclkit.exe can successfully [load]
the DLL, it ought to work just fine.  However, I'd be very 
surprised if an 8.4.1 tclkit.exe will be able to [load] them.

Compiling against 8.4.9 headers and loading into an 8.4.1 interp
will definitely make things crash.
