Re: Expect broken by new TCL import

[Daniel Jacobowitz <drow@mvista.com>]

I did that.  TCL has some serious make issues; my tcl object directory
has 8.3 and 8.4 in it, and nothing triggered expect to reconfigure in
such a way as to discard the cached -ltcl8.3.

This means existing build directories probably need to be cleaned
pretty thoroughly.  The beauty of the new toplevel configury: it's as
simple as rm -rf expect, make all-expect.  Now it works.
