Hmm. There is a common trick to finding wish (and presumably other
"shells") for a shell script; it involves an "exec" as the first
executable line of the script. Did this just recently. I'll look it up
when I get to work.

Your path must of course be set properly; is that not acceptable?
Can't we tolerate minor changes in wish version without
rebuilding/reinstalling from Postgres sources??
