I've seen this, and solved it, a long time ago, and I have a vague
feeling that it may have been a case of a header file from an existing
(and different) TCL installation being read by accident. (As in: it
found a TCL header file under /usr/local/include instead of reading it
from the distributed subtree of the application it came with.)
