I tried to tackle this bug today, but it goes beyond my scope now. Even if you solve the syntax problems, you'll end with a FTBFS problem (I tried i386 and PowerPC) because of this error:
[...] checking for tcl.h... -I/usr/include/tcl8.3/tcl-private/generic checking for libtcl8.3... no checking for init.tcl... /usr/lib/tcl8.3 checking for tclsh8.3.5... no checking for tclsh8.3... no checking for tclsh... no checking for tclsh7.6... no checking for tclsh8.3.5... no checking for tclsh8.3... no checking for tclsh... no checking for tclsh7.6... no checking for tclsh8.3.5... no checking for tclsh8.3... /usr/bin/tclsh8.3 configure: error: Installation of tcl seems incomplete or can't be found automatically. Please correct the problem by telling configure where tcl is using the argument --with-tcl=/path/to/package (perhaps after installing it), or the package is not required, disable it with --with-tcl=no. make: *** [build-stamp] Error 1 [...] If you regenerate the configure script under otcl/ using autoconf, the same error arises.
