Your PERL5LIB and PERL_LIB environment variables are pointing to an area
which might be a separate perl installation, or may contain Tk files that
were built under an older perl, hence the mixing of versions.
As a test, try unsetting those two variables and see if you can load Tk:
$ bash # start a subshell
$ unset PERL5LIB PERL_LIB
$ perl -MTk -e 1
$ exit
if that runs without errors, then that will confirm the location of the
problem. After that, you'll need to decide why those variables were set,
and whether you need to do something similar for your new environment.
