My suggestion, for those who wanted this, was to build the entire
tcl/tk(GDI) "stack" with a unique prefix -- that way it wouldn't BE
mixed with the other clients which (will soon be) compiled to use the
X11 version. And, to even use it at all, one would have to put it in
the PATH "ahead" of /usr/bin. That's surely not standard; and if
somebody does this and it breaks something -- then they get to keep both
pieces. WJM, after all.
