Summary: Missing eval in configure.in

Initial Comment:
MSW reports (on the chat) that latest changes to
configure.in / tcl.m4 (#1081595) break the build on NetBSD.

Problem: "configure produces makefile targets like
libtcl`echo ... | tr -d ...`".

Probable cause of the problem:  the line

| eval "TCL_LIB_FILE=${TCL_LIB_FILE}"

(configure.in r1.125 line 448), which was removed in r1.126,
is actually used for more than just expanding ${TCL_DBGX}. 
In particular, if TCL_LIB_VERSIONS_OK is set to "nodots", it
contains other shell escapes.

Attached patch attempts to fix the problem by restoring this
line.
