Greetings, and thankyou for this suggestion.  It does seem like a bit
of a hack though, no?  Do you feel this would be more stable than just
linking statically?  

Apropos to this, I just saw the following warnings issued on a static
build on merulo:

/usr/lib/libtcl8.4.a(tclUnixFCmd.o)(.text+0x1b62): In function `GetGroupAttribute':

We don't really use these functions, so I think we'd be alright here,
but I'd like your opinion as always.  Please also et me know whether
you think Debian ia64 ldso might change in this regard in the future.

Take care,
