Arnaud, I've had a similar problem with several packages in R 2.13.0 recently, which was more caused because the package installation failed in the new version. Judging from the error messages you have up here, I'd guess that it's a similar problem surrounding the package installation, specifically that something happened which may have damaged the .dll file.
So to answer your last question, I'd try re-installing the Tcl/Tk package and see if that fixes the problem.
