Hmmm. The stack trace doesn't give any strong clues by itself.
But, knowing that we included the Tcl/Tk header files with 
the binary (and that runs), and also knowing that you either
have both Tcl/Tk 7.4/4.0 *and* Tcl/Tk 7.5/4.1 on your system
*or* you removed 7.4/4.0, I would guess that it's a header include
problem.  

On the normal source distribution, did you install the include
files in the *exact* same place as they were in 7.4/4.0?  (namely,
/usr/lib/*.h instead of /usr/lib/tk4.1/*.h and the same for Tcl)

If that's not the problem, it could be with libtclobjc or BLT, which 
should be recompiled after you install the new Tcl/Tk.
