The 8.4 ChangeLog says
* The C interface has been fully CONST-ified. That is, wherever a
function accepts an argument or returns a result that is intended to be
a read-only string, it now has type (const char *) even where prior
releases of Tcl/Tk had type (char *). This causes some source
incompatibilities. #define USE_NON_CONST will restore an interface
that is source-compatible with Tcl 8.3. See TIP 27 and
http://wiki.tcl.tk/3669 for more information.
