I'm wrong here. My installed tclConfig.sh doesn't reflect my normal
build directory and that confused me. Rebuilding Tcl (using 8.4.18)
indeed shows the exact build path is identified.

How did I get a path in my tclConfig.sh that doesn't exist on my
system?

Because I built Tcl during the chroot phase of LFS. And that path
is indeed different, and the installed tclConfig.sh reflects the
exact path I used in LFS chroot.

I'm not against fixing this. I just felt it to be unnecessary.
How can this be exploited?

So, just for the exercise. let's see who can come up with the most
diminutive command(s) to insert in our instructions to modify
tclConfig.sh or tclConfig.sh.in. We definitely don't want to
modify the installed tclConfig.sh in /usr/lib.
