Get tcl headers by downloading the full tcl from sourceforge

Since your port depends on port:tcl, wouldn't it be better to use the
tcl tarball already downloaded by the tcl port, rather than download
it again? I believe someone recently posted instructions on how to do
that.
If tcl were not already installed it would be better. But what
about when
the tcl port is already installed? In that case it would still
need to be
fetched again since those headers aren't installed by the tcl port,
and
they can't be because of problems it creates.
You may need to extract the tcl tarball again, but you don't need to
download it from the tcl web site again. Look at the tcl and tk
portfiles. They both set
dist_subdir tcltk
You could do that in itcl too and then you could pick up the tcl
tarball already in that directory.
I suppose this would have the side effect of putting the itcl tarball
there too. I don't know if there's a way to use different tarballs
from (or download different tarballs to) different directories....
