The enable-msql switch allows you to link msqltcl into the Tnm
extension. This is now a historic feature since the new version of
msqltcl allows to build a dynamic loadable module. With this version
of msqltcl, you can use the Tcl package system to add support for
msql. (The enable-msql configuration option will disappear in 2.2.0.)
The scotty scripts don't do fancy things when mSQL is enabled. It is
probably not worth to spend time on the Tcl_LinkVar() problem if you
do not plan to write Tnm scripts that store data in a mSQL database.
