Okay, so then don't call it "configure" if it's not a configure script
then; and don't accept the same variables, i.e., --prefix

"well, at least for that i think you should blame the inventors of c
(Thompson and Ritchie)"

No, that's not true, at all. Any competent programmer would know that if
you can specify directories and full paths; if you want full paths for your
configure variables, then standardize it so all of them are full paths; not
alternating between directory and full path for every other variable
(without documentation indicating as such).

"
If i have to make a guess: TCL_LIBRARY point to the wrong directory
Try:
TCL_LIBRARY = -L/usr/lib -ltcl8.5"

Nope, it does not point to the wrong directory.  Allow me to show you


Your way:
ls /usr/lib/libtcl8.5*
ls: cannot access /usr/lib/libtcl8.5*: No such file or directory

My way:

ls /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcl*
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcl8.5.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcl8.5.so.0
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcl.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtclstub.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcl8.5.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcl.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtclstub8.5.a

You have no idea about what you're talking.
