Exactly.  I am *not* 100% sure what is in the book is correct.  In fact
I am less than 50% sure.

The more I research this, the more I think that this should be a basic
CMMI package.  We should just fundamentally use the LFS Chapter 5
instructions:

cd unix
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-threads
make

make install
make install-private-headers
ln -sv tclsh8.4 /tools/bin/tclsh

Nothing more unless we can positively establish a need.  At least they
say that the private headers are needed for expect.
