Summary: TEA_PROG_WISH  / TEA_PROG_TCLSH busted?

Initial Comment:
After updating to TEA 3.3 (tclconfig/tcl.m4 r1.72), the
TEA_PROG_WISH macro for some reason decides that
wish8.4 lives in the extension's build directory, which
is wrong.

On Debian stable, Tile package CVS HEAD (2005-09-28):

| mkdir build ; cd build
| sh ../configure --with-tcl=/usr/lib/tcl8.4
--with-tk=/usr/lib/tk8.4

spits out a Makefile containing:

| TCLSH_PROG      = /u/jenglish/src/tile/build/tclsh8.4
| WISH_PROG       = /u/jenglish/src/tile/build/wish8.4

(/u/jenglish/src/tile is where my CVS checkout is).

With TEA 3.2, the same incantation gave the correct
results:

| TCLSH_PROG      = /usr/bin/tclsh8.4
| WISH_PROG       = /usr/bin/wish8.4

Relevant change is probably tcl.m4 r1.71:

revision 1.71
date: 2005/07/26 19:09:23;  author: mdejong;  state: Exp; 
lines: +56 -129
        * tcl.m4 (TEA_PROG_TCLSH, TEA_BUILD_TCLSH,
        TEA_PROG_WISH, TEA_BUILD_WISH): Remove
        TEA_BUILD_TCLSH and TEA_BUILD_WISH because
        of complaints that it broke the build when
        only an installed version of Tcl was available
        at extension build time. The TEA_PROG_TCLSH and
        TEA_PROG_WISH macros will no longer search the
        path at all. The build tclsh or installed
        tclsh shell will now be found by TEA_PROG_TCLSH.


The new versions of TEA_PROG_WISH and TEA_PROG_TCLSH  no
longer even allow the user to set WISH_PROG and TCLSH_PROG
in the environment as an override for when 'configure'
guesses wrong.  At the very least, please restore this
feature -- 'configure' scripts break, a lot, and it's
crucial that end users be able to override the defaults at
configure-time on platforms where this happens.
