Doesn't tclX actually grab the _source code_ of both the tcl and the tk
stuff?  If you only have the package loaded, I think it can't possibly 
work.  BTW, I'd like to know if you get it built, and especially if you 
get it to pass all the tests (it gives me a floating point coredump, but 
doesn't seem to actually leave a core file around to check).
