If someone wants to play with that, go ahead.  I see no reason the
installation person, if they want tcl/tk, should type in those directory
names.  However, if the actual library and include files have version
numbers in them, well, that is a pain.  Do they edit their source and
makefiles every time they upgrade versions?
