 Probably not too difficult, but I'm sure it will require some 
 non-trivial amount of effort.

 Well, welcome aboard! :-)
 
 CVS is very easy to use, IMO. You can find the manual for CVS at 
 http://www.gnu.org/manual/cvs-1.9/cvs.html .
 
 You'll need to restore a copy of the "old" tcl, tk, tix, itcl. libgui 
 packages from sources.redhat.com. It looks like the Tcl8.3 import was 
 tagged TCL_8_3, but they did not tag the repository before they did this, 
 so you just need to check out some date in early-mid 2001. You can get CVS 
 to checkout/update a copy of this version of tcl, tk, tix, itcl, and 
 libgui. (To check these out, 'cvs co -D 07/01/2001 naked-tcl, naked-tk, 
 naked-tix naked-itcl naked-libgui', assuming you've got CVSROOT 
 appropriately set. See the section on checkouts in the CVS manual.)
 
 One you have this, you've got to try to get it all built. Run configure 
 and try to build it. Then address any problems that show up.
 
 It won't be easy, but it should be doable.
 
 Good luck,
 Keith
