The 32-bit-installer links to the older Carbon-based Tcl/Tk 8.4 which is 
very different under the covers from the Tcl/Tk 8.5 used by the 
Apple-supplied Pythons and the python.org 64-bit installer.  So there's 
*something* on your system that interferes with the Cocoa Tcl/Tk 8.5.  
If you want to pursue it, you might ask on the OS X Tcl mailing list.  
Good luck!
