This has come up before, and I still wish to voice against it.  Like I
said to Mike (vapier/spanky) in a previous post, and what msterret and I
are working on fixing through the tree is:

tcltk? ( X? ( blah ) )

which is more accurate.  By separating them you run into this error
case:

USE="-tcl tk"

except that tk needs tcl.  And once upon a time they actually were
separate.  I put them together because every ebuild that had a tk dep in
it was doing:

tcl? ( tcl ) tk? ( tk )

which is just silly really.

My 2 cents,
