To compile 'tcltklib', you must have Tcl/Tk libraries on your environment. 
Although 'extconf.rb' script searches Tcl/Tk libraries and header files, 
sometimes fails to find them. And then, 'tcltklib' cannot be compiled. If 
Tcl/Tk libraries or header files are installed but are not found, you can 
give the information by arguments of the 'configure' script. Please give 
some or all of the following options. 

 --with-tcllib=<libname>    (e.g. libtcl8.3.so ==> --with-tcllib=tcl8.3)
 --with-tklib=<libname>     (e.g. libtk8.3.so  ==> --with-tklib=tk8.3)

 --enable_tcltk_stubs       (if you force to enable stubs)

 --with-tcl-dir=<path> 
      equal to "--with-tcl-include=<path>/include --with-tcl-lib=<path>/lib"

 --with-tk-dir=<path> 
      equal to "--with-tk-include=<path>/include --with-tk-lib=<path>/lib"

 --with-tcl-include=<dir>   the directry containts 'tcl.h'
 --with-tk-include=<dir>    the directry containts 'tk.h'

 --with-tcl-lib=<dir>       the directry containts 'libtcl<version>.so'
 --with-tk-lib=<dir>        the directry containts 'libtk<version>.so'

If you forgot to give the options when do 'configure' on toplevel
directry of Ruby sources, please try something like as the followings.

 $ cd ext/tcltklib
 $ rm Makefile
 $ CONFIGURE_ARGS='--with-tcl-include=/usr/local/include/tcl8.3/ --with-tcllib=tcl8.3 --with-tklib=tk8.3 --enable-tcltk_stubs' ruby extconf.rb


 *** ATTENTION ***
When your Tcl/Tk libraries are compiled with "pthread support", 
Ruby/Tk may cause "Hang-up" or "Segmentation Fault" frequently. 
If you have such a trouble, please try to use the '--enable-pthread' 
option of the 'configure' command and re-compile Ruby sources. 
It may help you to avoid this trouble.
