blt not building

I'm trying to build blt but I'm getting an error. Here's the output:

Looks like BLT is not ready for Tk 8.5 yet. I hope someone patches it soon.

I wonder if this fixes it: http://reddog.s35.xrea.com/wiki/A%20Stub-enabled%20BLT2.4z%20for%20Windows.html

For the record, my current workaround is that I use a modified version of the tk and tcl ports that install version 8.4.19 of both.

Here's a promising version to try.
