The tcstart is "touched" by postinst in order to avoid problems during
upgrade. If your configuration has TC_ENABLED=Yes but you don't have
tcstart shorewall refuses to start. Older versions worked without any
problems when the tcstart file was missing.

I'll add a test in order to check if that file is empty.

Thank you very much.
