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.

The tclConfig.sh comes from /usr/local/lib/tcl8.0/tclConfig.sh
and it's the SCCS: @# tclConfig.sh.in 1.20 97/07/01 11:40:19

If you need more information, you can ask me for.
Sorry I don't know TCL language yet and I can't be useful
to solve this.

With no one else seeing the problem, we may just have to wait for
another bug report.
