My first accepted patch, already being reverted... :-( :-)

I used the T::RL on CPAN to create my patch.  That will give anyone with the 
appropriate tuits a starting place.

Note that T::RL::Gnu and ::Perl check C<defined &Tk::DoOneEvent> to see if they 
should call the Tk loop.  This will make things a bit more interesting when 
trying to avoid breaking backward compatibility.  You may notice that my patch 
creates a dummy function just so this test succeeds, even without Tk loaded.

By moving to something even more generic, this may make it harder not to break 
::Perl and ::Gnu.  Not impossible, I'm sure, but a bit harder.
