I've compiled Pd without pd-gui, on a machine without X (and so probably 
no tk, not sure about X).  Can't remember how I did it now, probably 
./configure, make pd pdsend pdreceive, edit Makefile if/when make fails, 
repeat as necessary.

I used pd -nogui -lib gridflow on that machine to render video.
