A wholesale back-out of the changes seems like a very desperate step, hm?
Since the CVS head is the development branch, changes to it should be
allowed. Or not? Besides, head should not be used for any productive
environment, AFAIK. If the checkin policy on head should be that rigorous,
then we'll advance very, very slowly, which is bad, isn't it?

As far as this particular issue is concerned, I did this purely for the
benefit of other folks. Somebody has to take care, ok?

Anyways, the compatibilty layer for following old calls has been done:

  Tcl_GetKeyedListKeys
  Tcl_GetKeyedListField
  Tcl_SetKeyedListField
  Tcl_DeleteKeyedListField

I *did not* wrap the:
  Tcl_KeylgetCmd
  Tcl_KeyldelCmd
  Tcl_KeylkeysCmd
  Tcl_KeylsetCmd

since those are only Tcl-API interfaces. I doubt that anybody
would seriously use them. If I'm mistaken, please tell me and
I will add those as well...
Now, checkout the head and recompile. If there are *any* problems,
please feel free to contact me directly ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) so we
do not saturate the list. I do not think this is the right place
to discuss such issues. For that, there is SF bug tracker.
