recipe for building base with MP tcl

[Bradley Giesbrecht]

Is there a recipe for building base with MP tcl?


I have tried building tcl with MP in a /opt/macports-test prefix; then build base with /opt/local prefix using tcl from /opt/macports-test:

$ CC=gcc-4.2 TCLSH=/opt/macports-test/bin/tclsh ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --with-tcl=/opt/macports-test/lib --with-tclinclude=/opt/macports-test/include --with-tclpackage=/opt/macports-test/lib | grep tcl
