Well, if i remember correctly the cc1 was the memory-checker not the
linker.

So to step further, changing
CC = cc
in the Makefile to
CC = cc -v
could help to check the version of the linker used; maybe a beta
version or an old one.

however, because tk and tcl could be installed (and linked ;-) i would
not expect an error in the linker.

But there were some dicussion in this list about building 2.1.5 with
tcl7.6 and tk4.2 and the recommendation was to use tk4.1 and tcl7.5,
because scotty 2.1.5 is based on this tk/tcl version.
