Just to clarify on top of David's unfounded non-researched answer, which by the way pisses me off highly, according to the developers of TCL all the bundled software is unaltered by them. It is the exact same version that you download from the included packages distribution sites. All tcl have done is to make a build wrapper that calls the individual configures.
