I just happened to have a few spare usecs to install 2.1.8 this morning.
Compiled lickity split on our Ultra2 (I like it!) ;)

Anyway, since my name was brought up, I suppose I should throw in
my own $.02

make, make install, and test run all worked fine for me. (tcl7.6/tk4.2)
[Aside: aren't we all glad that in 8.0 they unified the release numbers
of the tcl and tk distributions?!?!]

Of note:
I configured tcl7.6 with --prefix=/opt/tcl7.6 --enable-shared
I configured scotty/tnm with --prefix=/opt/tcl7.6 (uses enabled shared from
tcl7.6 by default)

I believe people in the past who have experienced the install problem have
not configured tcl with --enable-shared flag.

In this regard, 2.6 should be no different than 2.5, or 2.5.1, or 2.4, etc

After the install I also get this message:
...
Installing ./../tkined/apps/germany-map.xbm
Installing ./../tkined/apps/locations

To use the Tnm extension, you have to set the TCLLIBPATH
environment variable or you have to edit the init.tcl file
which is part of your Tcl installation. See the README file
for further instructions how to do this.

The Tnm extension includes two programs (ntping, straps)
which require root permissions. Please get root permissions
and type >> make sinstall << to install them setuid root.

-----
But! if you configure as indicated above, you should be able to safely ignore this
message. I have never ever had to set TCLLIBPATH when building
tnm/scotty/tkined or running, or installing, etc.
