There are only a few libraries that have a config file to aid
compiling/linking. Of the ones we 'version' (GTK and GLIB) you can set the
GLIB/GTK_CONFIG env. var to tell apps where to find it.

I don't think its possible for tcl since it looks in a given path for a
config file instead of looking for a config file in the path.
