Actually, after following Juergen's advice I was able to
get past the `make install` step but now I get another more
common error message:

{raven:root:54} make install
Installing scotty2.1.8 and tnm2.1.8.so
Installing ./../tnm/library/README
Installing ./../tnm/library/dialog.tcl
Installing ./../tnm/library/output.tcl
Installing ./../tnm/library/snmp.tcl
Installing ./../tnm/library/monitor.tcl
Installing ./../tnm/library/obsolete.tcl
Installing ./../tnm/library/init.tcl
initialization failed: couldn't load file
"/opt/solaris/lib/tnm2.1.8.so": ld.so.1: ./scotty: fatal: relocation
error: symbol not found: Tcl_SetVar2: referenced in
/opt/solaris/lib/tnm2.1.8.so
make: *** [tnm-install-library] Error 1

It now is able to load the library as I have cleared up that problem
by pointing Tcl to Tcl8.0. I've also tried the "--enabled-shared"
option to the `configure` routine and recompiled and installed and
now I get the error listed above. Juergen seemed to indicate in
another email that if this didn't work then the other user who had this
problem would be on his own. Actually, I think I'll ping that user
if Juergen's response to my reply is similiar. Thanks for
the additional info.
