John proposed to change the way the auto_path is used. He did not
define an additional directory that is included in the auto_path and
independent of the Tcl version. So every extension is automatically
bound to the Tcl version - something I dislike.

Yes, the current situation is nasty. Choose a solution you like for
Debian since we can't predict how Tcl7.6 will solve this problem.
