No, it wouldn't ... configure's switch parsing is too dumb to cope with
more than one occurrence of each --with-XXX directive. (If the above
is a verbatim transcript, then you misspelled --with-includes the second
time :-( ... but it wouldn't have worked anyway ...)

I think this will work:

--with-includes='/opt/tcl-8.0/include /opt/tk-8.0/includes/X11'
--with-libraries='/opt/tcl-8.0/lib /opt/tk-8.0/X11/lib'

At least, perusing the configure script's code makes it look like
something close to that should work for specifying multiple include or
library directories. You might have to mess around with the quoting to
get it just right.

I think we oughta have an example of this in the INSTALL documentation...
