libh's package library completely uses TCL for everything.
OpenPackages wants its own packaging format, so we have to support
OpenPackages format in libh's libs.

I'm not happy about this (since libh's package stuff already works),
but it happened, that a second group wanted to create a new package
format.  You know, I'm now strongly participating in OP's package
format work, so that the ideas in libh aren't lost.
