pl/tcl doesn't use Makefile.shlib --- it relies on information from
the local Tcl installation to build a Tcl-compatible shlib.  I suspect
what we have here is either an error in Ferruccio's local tclConfig.sh,
or the pl/tcl Makefile is not fully understanding how to use the info
from tclConfig.sh.  If you can build pl/tcl on your system then I'm
guessing the former?  Hard to tell for sure, but it sure looks like
the shlib name is not getting inserted after -soname like it needs to.
