I already know lang/tcl-expect will not build on tcl 8.5, and
probably requires an update to the latest source (it's pretty

Yes, and this is hard blocker.
My vote is to bite the bullet, move to the latest version, and
fix the problems later. I can run these through pbulk and see
what regresses first of course.
Not until you demonstrate at least functional Expect.
I find it counterproductive to "bite the bullet" and kill such
corner-stone software used in testing and automation like Expect
just to import something comletely unknown or simply update.
Anyhow, I welcome your work in this area.
