The package fails to configure because of missing otcl:
Well it's not exactly "missing", the package is in the archive
and it was installed for the build, so the question was why
isn't the configure script finding it.
The cause is multiarchification of the otcl packaging. Lukilly
it's pretty easy to workaround from debian/rules.
Not so lukilly after doing so I get link failures :( and I
can't figure out the cause.

I would cc the maintainers of tclcl but after looking closer it seems they are
the same as the maintainers of ns2 anyway.
P.S. I've attatched the patch for the configure script issue.
