Ask yourself these questions: Is /usr/lib/ruby/1.8 where Ruby 1.8.6  
is installed? Or is 1.8.6 in some other directory? If it's in some  
other directory, why didn't two versions of tcltklib.bundle turn up  
from find?

I'm thinking that your 1.8.6 installation is incomplete -- that it's  
possible you didn't install tcltklib.bundle when you installed 1.8.6.
