Yet more improvments to finding Tcl/Tk. Recent versions of Tcl/Tk put "real" bash code in tclConfig.sh and tkConfig.sh so the hackish "treat this as an ini file" approach no longer works. The new way is to actually source the file with bash and "eval echo" environment variables to get the results back. This should work fine on Unices -- it doesn't have to work on Windows since we use a more hard-coded config there.
