turle has existed and required tkinter to work pretty much forever. Some
potential courses of action, or variations thereof:

 - Unconditionally depend on x11-toolkits/py-tkinter *and* anything else
installed by the stdlib that depends on external libraries (like sqlite doesn't
work without databases/py-sqlite3), because turtle is not a unique case.

 - Add OPTIONS for all external library dependencies (this is technically an
incomplete solution if it doesn't also remove modules when the options are
disabled)

 - Don't install any module which has a third party dependency in lang/python*
ports, and install/package them with the respective sub-packaged port

 - WONTFIX (asking if the error message is enough for users to grok what to do)

 - Stop sub-packaging
