While I do test builds on a Red Hat 7.3 compatible system, I do not do so on a
7.1 system. Sorry.

But you might find other things broken, like Python. You can remove the whole
python client build if you wish (and don't need a python client) by passing
'python 0' as a --define. AFAIK that will work on RHL7.1. YMMV.
I am testing some scripts/macros that will automatically figure out the
system; they are not production ready yet.

The package doesn't exist in the 7.x series. All you need is the main tcl
package in 7.x, and the build7x macro in the spec file takes care of that.
