  It has *intentional* memory leaks.  They're not called memory leaks
by the TCL people, but they're still problematic.

  Long-running TCL scripts, unless they're written carefully, may use
large amounts of memory.

  Hmm, documentation states that TCL was developed as language easy to
embed in other applications. That's strange for me it has memory leaks
problem. Anyway I'm going to do some experiments to see what happens.

  Unless you're careful, TCL has memory leaks.  That's a terrible
thing to do to a RADIUS server.

  Memory leaks don't matter when you're running TCL as a separate
process.  When it's part of another program that runs for months
without exiting, TCL is a bad, bad, bad, choice.

   Any reasons to not include? beside that rlm_perl and rlm_python
exists.

  No.  I'm not sure I'd want to include one, even if it existed.

  Try rlm_perl or rlm_python.
