Thanks. Looks like this commit 
(https://github.com/msteveb/jimtcl/commit/7bf43eb589f738b7bdb3b4837bc0dde304046a2d)
means that Jim Tcl now requires read access to each element of the path.

I'll take a look at fixing this. In the meantime, you can install Tcl
(and remove autosetup/jimsh0), or change the permissions.

Cheers,
Steve
