Unfortunately, you need to build and install everything that is there. The
Tcl/Tk that is included with Insight has some patches that are needed.
Insight won't (currently) work with a different or newer version of
Tcl/Tk. Yes, this is being worked on.
I'd suggest using the --prefix option to configure to specify where you
want Insight (and its corresponding version of Tcl/Tk) to install. That way
you can have both Insight and your newer Tcl/Tk 8.3 be in different places.
Cheers.
