We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.  But the flip side of this is
that on any time scale less than long term we have to continue to support
plserver and pltcl.

I expect the problem is caused because pltcl is set up correctly to do the
tcl_findLibrary search and plserver not.

Could you please try similar temporary tclAPI.c coding tricks there so that
both searches fail, and we can look at the tcl_findLibrary error messages
from both plserver and pltcl? Are they the same or fundamentally different
as in the case on Linux?
