 * I consider "my" FreeBSD-2.2 system to be "adequate" for ANY port that is
 * distributed, where the port files do not indicate a requirement for
 * something that I don't already have. If a port requires a specific version
 * of BSD-PORT-MK, then there should be a note in the port files, to that
 * affect. 

Your system (at least bsd.port.mk) is not the release version of
FreeBSD-2.2 (or 2.2.1, which is identical as far as ports go).
tcl-7.6 is buildable on 2.2R.  Believe me, or how did I build the
package that's now sitting on ftp.freebsd.org's packages-2.2
directory? ;)

Moreover, as long as you take ports from 2.2-RELEASE/ports (or
ports-2.2, the extracted tree) on ftp.freebsd.org, they should all
build for 2.2R.  If you want to build ports from ports-current, you
may need the -current bsd.port.mk (which may or may not be enough to
build a particular port, of course, if the rest of your system is not
-current).
