The command "try" is new built-in tcl 8.6. Since the implementation of
proc "try" in macports_util.tcl says, it is compatible with Tcl TIP #89,
lets hope that the usage pattern in of "try" in macports are compatible
with TIP #89, and one can use the built-in "try" instead of the proc -
at least, when tcl8.6 is used.
