ActiveTcl8.4.14.0.272572-win32-ix86-threaded.vfs/payload/lib/tklib0.4/tklib.
tap:Package {__tablelist 0.0}
ActiveTcl8.4.14.0.272572-win32-ix86-threaded.vfs/payload/lib/tklib0.4/tklib.
tap:Package {tablelist 4.5}
ActiveTcl8.4.14.0.272572-win32-ix86-threaded.vfs/payload/lib/tklib0.4/tklib.
tap:Package {Tablelist 4.5}
ActiveTcl8.4.14.0.272572-win32-ix86-threaded.vfs/payload/lib/tklib0.4/tklib.
tap:Package {tablelist_tile 4.5}
ActiveTcl8.4.14.0.272572-win32-ix86-threaded.vfs/payload/lib/tklib0.4/tklib.
tap:Package {Tablelist_tile 4.5}
ActiveTcl8.4.14.0.272572-win32-ix86-threaded.vfs/payload/lib/tklib0.4/tklib.
tap:Package {tablelist::common 4.5}

ActiveTcl8.4.15.0.280562-win32-ix86-threaded.vfs/payload/lib/tklib0.4/tklib.
tap:Package {tablelist::common 4.8}

Seems that things changed between AT 8.4.14 and 8.4.15, with tablelist going
from 4.5 to 4.8.
This is somewhere between Nov 26 2006 to Jun 16 2007.

Well, I will look into tklib itself and get the generator fixed.

And wondering how I can modify the build system so that things like that get
caught. It doesn't feel easy ... Hm, maybe it is easier than thought ... cat
all .tap files, grep for Package, that is the set of tap packages defined by
the distribution, then diff that against a saved list ... I.e. generate a
manifest, compare against a saved baseline.
