Thanks very much for your help with our little problem. I am out of ideas on this. I can do a "package require BLT" in both wish and tclsh just fine with no problems. And when I try to load BLT into Perl, the error is not that it cannot find the BLT package library. The problem is that when it tries to load that library there is a missing symbol. That symbol is found only in libtcl8.4.so. If I manually load that library before loading BLT then everything works. The odd thing is that I shouldn't have to do that. The Tcl.so used by perl should already be loading libtcl8.4.so.
Is it possible that the implicit loader (or any pre-loading occuring through whatever means) for libtcl is using RTLD_LOCAL instead of RTLD_GLOBAL, which would very possible cause this issue?
