I debated long and hard about bumping the shared library version to 1.1 and then 1.2 for the patches and decided it was the "right" thing to do despite the carry-over into other ports. This was why I was so paranoid about the port upgrade and asked for lots of testing. I wanted to see if this would bite anyone. I still think the right thing to do is to just change the port PLIST on the new ports for tcl/tk 8.0. If we decide that I made the wrong call on this, we should stick it out for 8.0 and then when tcl8.1 comes out, we can go the other way. Paul
