This is Tcl version 8.5, an embeddable tool command language.
Tcl (Tool Command Language) is a very powerful but easy to learn dynamic
programming language, suitable for a very wide range of uses, including web
and desktop applications, networking, administration, testing and many more.
Open source and business-friendly, Tcl is a mature yet evolving language that
is truly cross platform, easily deployed and highly extensible.
A full set of manual pages is also provided with this port.

- Adds a new way of working with threaded versions and
resolves conflicts.
- Bump PORTREVISION
Notes:
Threaded libraries and shell are installed on top of the standard ones
so ports that depend on threaded and non-threaded tcl can be used
simultaneously.
Behaiviour with non-threaded libraries does not change.
