Hi Massimo,

No I just took the 8.6 source file from the tcl website. I thought 8.6 had
the fix already. How do I do this? I am unfamiliar with it.

I just do a load with the path of the library, in my case load
/export/home/prodmaster/work/bs/lib/libBSTclApi.so

What I don't get is that the root user can load this library with all
dependencies inside a tclsh without problem, but not within Rivet.
I thought the fork inherits the environment from the parent's process.

Thank you,

Brice.
