Dead code in tkinter

Bug report

Bug description:

Modules/_tkinter.c always defines TCL_THREADS:

/* If Tcl is compiled for threads, we must also define TCL_THREAD. We define
   it always; if Tcl is not threaded, the thread functions in
   Tcl are empty.  */ 
#define TCL_THREADS

but in two places in Modules/_tkinter.c , we check if TCL_THREADS is defined:

#ifdef TCL_THREADS
static Tcl_ThreadDataKey state_key;
typedef PyThreadState *ThreadSpecificData;
#define tcl_tstate \
    (*(PyThreadState**)Tcl_GetThreadData(&state_key, sizeof(PyThreadState*)))
#else
static PyThreadState *tcl_tstate = NULL;
#endif

and

#ifndef TCL_THREADS
    if (v->threaded) {
        PyErr_SetString(PyExc_RuntimeError,
                        "Tcl is threaded but _tkinter is not");
        Py_DECREF(v);
        return 0;
    }
#endif

Especially the latter is confusing, as this code block is not compiled and the test is never executed.
