But without_tcl used to be the only default variant. So if I don't continue 
enabling it by default, the next conditional…

    if {![variant_isset without_tcl]} {
        default_variants +tcl
    }

…sets +tcl for new installs, which isn't right. If there's a better way of 
handling this, I'd be happy to use it.

Yeah, I just verified that some binaries link against Tcl, so we should use our 
libraries. But that variant has a bunch of other problems that need to be fixed 
first.
