that's ok for -current, but for -stable, consider that 2.2.6 is
coming out relatively soon. it would be a shame not to complete
the change before the release and have yet another tk version to
carry...

in other words, either one first moves all tk80 ports to tk81 (which
is fine, hopefully the differences should not be too big) or it is
better to start from the smallest set among tk41 and tk42 ports
and move them to tk80 (might not be trivial... as shown by the
recent problem i was having with vat, the code might compile but
still not run as desired).

in any case the last word should go to the release engineer...
