Snit package in TCL/TK libraries

I am trying to install Perl's Tcl-Tk-0.97 package off CPAN 
(http://search.cpan.org/~vkon/Tcl-Tk-0.97/).
The Makefile.PL does a test for something called snit in the TCL libraires.
=> it runs tclsh with a small script which does "package require snit".
This fails.

I am not a regular TCL/TK user so I don't really know what snit is. 
Apparently its part of the standard Tcl library (according to 
http://www.tcl.tk/starkits/ and searching for snit).

I have Cygwin's TclTk build 20060202, but it does not seem to be there.
Maybe this is an old compile, 
http://sourceware.org/ml/insight/2006-q4/msg00055.html suggests there 
have been some problems building the tcl/tk libraries. But this message 
suggesting a fix was done is newer than the last TclTk release.
Can anyone help?
