I think he's fully aware that eggdrop 1.3.22 hasn't been fixed for tcl 8.3.2,
that's why he's trying to now create a package for eggdrop 1.6.6:

Notice that the above does _not_ include '-Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib' anywhere in
it.  As a result, while libtcl83.so is found at build time in /usr/pkg/lib
(from the -L), /usr/pkg/lib is not put into the executable's run-time
library search path.

As a result, the "check that all run-time libraries resolve" step fails:

Here's a clue: the build process is changing how it invokes the compiler
somewhere between
>> checking whether the C compiler (cc -O2  -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib -L/usr/pkg/lib -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib -L/usr/pkg/lib) works... yes

(which is in the configure step and includes all the correct -Wl,-R stuff)
and the compile stage, where we see (shortly before the linking stage):

>> cc -pipe -O2 -I.. -I.. -DHAVE_CONFIG_H    '-DCCFLAGS="cc -pipe -O2 -I.. -I.. -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  "'  '-DLDFLAGS="cc -pipe"'  '-DSTRIPFLAGS="strip"' -c ./main.c

(In other words, this compile script somewhere overwrites LDFLAGS with
something broken...)
