Hi,

/usr/lib/tcl8.3, isn't that a directory?
If it is, check out if ./configure has a --with-tcl-lib option (or
something similar).. "./configure --help" will show you.. 

it it exists try :
./configure --with-tcl-lib=/usr/lib/tcl8.3

Maybe xcdroast will accept the newer version..

If it doesn't work... installing tcl80 might help.. :-)

Byebye..
