In Tcl's source code I only find 3 things it does:
- TclInitSubsystems
- Init encoding system (utf8 and unicode are essential, others not)
- find executable path
The latter can be prevented by providing NULL as
argument of Tcl_FindExecutable(). This could be
documented better, but it's a reality now.
