Did you execute /sbin/ldconfig after modifying /etc/ld.so.conf?

# On my environment, that works properly.

Please check that tcltklib.so is really compiled.

You installed ActiveTcl at "/usr/local/ActiveTcl", didn't you?
Is that typo? If not, it is no wonder to fail to find libraries.
As I wrote in my last mail, you must add "/usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib". 

e.g. 
(bash)$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib /usr/local/bin/irb

If you erased FC3's Tcl/Tk packages, probably all of them will not
work. Those are fillers of your disk. :-)

# If setting is proper, ActiveTcl can coexistent with FC3's Tcl/Tk.
