I am currently using solaris sparc activetcl 8.5.0.0.280602 Beta 8
with teacup saying that all the extensions are up to date (and for that
matter, all the extensions relevant to this platform installed).

When I run this script:

$ ./requires.tcl
#! /tmp/.lwv/ActiveTcl-8.5/bin/tclsh8.5

catch {package require lwvNotThere}
set plist [package names]

foreach package $plist {
	set rc [catch {set version [package require $package]} result options]
	puts "package require $package load rc: $rc result: $result options: $options"
}

I get, as a result, nearly 14,000 lines of output - much of it tcl error
messages - followed by a core dump of tclsh8.5 .

That wasn't what I was expecting - I thought I would get a series of lines
of output like

package require counter load rc: 0 result: 2.0.4 options: -code 0 -level 0
package require logger load rc: 0 result: 0.8 options: -code 0 -level 0
package require rcs load rc: 0 result: 0.1 options: -code 0 -level 0
package require Plotchart load rc: 0 result: 1.3.1 options: -code 0 -level 0
package require tclDESjr load rc: 0 result: 1.0.0 options: -code 0 -level 0

and so forth.

So, I was wondering whether any other user of ActiveTcl 8.5 beta sees the
same thing.
