One thing I've seen happen: Because both the pltcl.so and libtcl think
their so-name is libtcl.so.0. Your case is likely slightly different,
though - it looks like your library isn't found, instead of just
symbols not being resolved. If you're running linux, try adding
/usr/local to your /etc/ld.so.conf
