[LV] I attempted to build Ck today, to try out [CkChat].  However,
I can't get cwsh to run.  I had to hack the Makefile to get it to
compile (I'm on SPARC Solaris 2.8, and am using Tcl 8.4.1).
When I run it, I see:

 Can't find a usable ck.tcl in the following directories: 
    /usr/tcl84/lib/ck8.0 /projects/xopsrc/lib/ck8.0 /projects/lib/ck8.0 /project
s/xopsrc/library /projects/library /projects/ck0/library /ck0/library

 /projects/xopsrc/lib/ck8.0/ck.tcl: wrong version of Ck loaded (8.0): need 8.0
 wrong version of Ck loaded (8.0): need 8.0
    while executing
 "error "wrong version of Ck loaded ($c.$d): need 8.0""
    invoked from within
 "if {$a == 7} {
    if {$c != 4} {
        error "wrong version of Ck loaded ($c.$d): need 4.X"
    }

Here's the interesting part:

 $ ls -l /projects/xopsrc/lib/ck8.0/ck.tcl
 -rw-r--r--   1 lwv26    xopsrc      2665 Jan 28 07:42 /projects/xopsrc/lib/ck8.0/ck.tcl

08feb03 [jcw] - If anyone wants it, I had a copy of Ck adapted to build with stubs and Tcl 8.4 lying around, and have placed the sources (plus a Linux build, IIRC) on the web at [http://www.equi4.com/pub/etc/ck-8.0-jcw.tar.gz].
