My tcl/tk installation is in:
/local/usr/ActiveTcl  (with subdirectories bin, include, lib, man..)

So, I tried running configure with:
../configure --prefix=/usr --with-tcl-include=/usr/local/ActiveTcl
--with-tk-include=/usr/local/ActiveTcl

Is this correct?  I get the same problem as before.  
I don't have much experience with configure, make etc.

Many thanks for any more help.
