solaris2.5.1 will give a clean build of 2.1.5 with tcl7.5/tk4.1.
Did you specify --prefix= when you ran configure to make sure you got
the right version of tcl/tk? I'm guessing as Juergen has that you got
mixed versions in there somewhere. Do a make clean in your scotty stuff
and rm config.cache and config.status and config.log and do your
configure again.
Then go through your build from the clean tree.

And as for LD_LIBRARY_PATH, indeed, make sure it is not set to anything
at all. It's better to use the -R flag when compiling things. LD_LIBRARY_PATH
tends to break more than it fixes on Solaris2.
