Tcl8.0.4 missing function?! (PR#1640)

[rjvbertin@hotmail.com]

I just realised that the return address in my recent bug report probably 
won't work... Here it is once more:


I compiled the latest R release. Configure correctly found my Tcl/Tk 8.0.4 
installation (it searched in various tcl8.0 and tk8.0 places). However, 
when:
>library(tcltk)
Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :
        unable to load shared library 
"/home/local/src/R-1.5.0/library/tcltk/libs/tcltk.so":
  /home/local/src/R-1.5.0/library/tcltk/libs/tcltk.so: undefined symbol: 
Tcl_SetVar2Ex
Error in library(tcltk) : .First.lib failed

Which is correct because I cannot find that symbol in my Tcl library!

The docs are unspecific as to the version needed (but the actions of the 
configure script suggest that 8.0 is supported!). Is this correct, or is 
this a bug in configure or the documentation?
