Yes, please. It was probably just on oversight on my part.

Yes, I think that the old configure was substituting TCLSH, but that got 
borked at some time or another. Using SC_PROG_TCLSH should be good 
enough. I'm the only one that ever really tweaks it, and that is as 
little as I possibly can manage. ;-)
