i get the impression you are fixing things that are not broken in the general distribution. The configure stuff is defined to produces always a file xotclsh or xowish, no matter whether you compile with or without --with-xotclsh.
This is just plain wrong. Drop the mega-binary idea. It is dead, dead, dead, dead. Tcl has had a very good dll mechanism for 7 years - all extensions should use it. So IMO Jim is fixing a configure system that *is* broken, at its very core design. You can do so much more with a pure extension, that should always be the default.
