I had a look to an old configure.in from tcl 8.0 (I can compile that version successfully), and I found that the FreeBSD specific section is missing in the new release. The problem seems to be related to shared libraries and .so/.a files in FreeBSD, but I don't know enough to fix it. BTW, I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.8. Any help will be very welcome. Thank you. P.S. Please, point me to the right list if this is not the one I should be posting to.
