that file is for postgresql 8.4, not 9.1

you want the postgresql91-pltcl package most likely. I just checked
the one for RHEL5 with Postgres 9.2, and its linked to libtcl8.4.so

# rpm -ql postgresql92-pltcl
/usr/pgsql-9.2/bin/pltcl_delmod
/usr/pgsql-9.2/bin/pltcl_listmod
/usr/pgsql-9.2/bin/pltcl_loadmod
/usr/pgsql-9.2/lib/pltcl.so
......

# ldd /usr/pgsql-9.2/lib/pltcl.so
linux-gate.so.1 => (0x40000000)
libtcl8.4.so => /usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so (0x40018000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x400d8000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x400dd000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x400f7000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40121000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x0035d000)
