Just install Tcl/Tk yourself. It works. (see 
https://github.com/protz/ocaml-installer/issues/19)

Uptate flexlink (see https://github.com/protz/ocaml-installer/issues/22)
Just copying flexdll_mingw.o, flexlink.exe and flexdll_initer_mingw.o 
from the last binary zip distributed by Alain Frish is enough 
(http://alain.frisch.fr/flexdll.html)

adapted and recompiled.
