The problem is that a full solution actually requires more than just
tcl.h and the library. For Tcl you also need to worry about TCL_LIBS
and TCL_LD_FLAGS - jld ran into problems in this area a couple of
weeks back trying to build statically-linked versions of the tools.
Tk requires TK_LIBS. On Unix-like systems there is really no sensible
alternative to processing tclConfig.sh and tkConfig.sh. When building
with Visual C++ everything is of course completely different.
