Comment (by cal@…):

 Replying to [comment:4 egall@…]:
 > I think that actually might have been what I was trying to do (I have a
 copy of Tcl in-tree for my fork of apple-gdb, for use with gdbtk), and I
 think that I must have just forgot to tell it to use the in-tree one
 instead of the MacPorts one... although then again, if this is from 8
 months ago, I do not think that I had actually started work on that by
 that point, so maybe it was for something different, I forget...

 Make sure that right next to the tclConfig.sh file picked up by your
 configure script there also is a Makefile. That's the test tcl.m4 uses to
 determine whether to use the build variables.

 > The macros in the standard `tcl.m4` are also pretty out-of-date, so I
 usually modify the copy I use to bring it more up-to-date, and it is
 possible that one of these modifications might have accidentally messed up
 the variables that it chose... anyway, either way it was probably a user
 error on my part, so I am okay with the closing of this.

 In what way are the macros in tcl.m4 out of date?
