I think it looks more like a bug in tcl8.6 which puts its library into
/usr/lib and adds -L/usr/lib to the tclConfig.sh script. Though tk8.6
does the same with tkConfig.sh.

Could you try tcl8.6 and tk8.6 from experimental? They have multiarch
enabled, and use /usr/lib/<triplet> instead of /usr/lib. I think it
will be way to fix this bug in the long run.

Cheers!
