this is an error message from the completely rewritten C++ based dyld  
implementation in Tiger, unfortunately it is not 100% backwards  
compatible with the old dyld in Panther and earlier, causing tcl to  
hit this abort while [load]ing in certain circumstances. I committed  
a workaround for the issue on 2005-07-30 on HEAD and core-8-4-branch,  
so any tclkit built from sources after that date will no longer have  
this problem.

the tclkit download page has a 8.4.11 aqua tclkit:

I'm slowly working on a 8.4.12 BI but cannot promise when/if it will  
be ready at this point in time.
