Summary: tcl_interactive side effect

Initial Comment:

In the Tcl_Main rewrite, the global Tcl variable
tcl_interactive was linked to the C variable tty,
allowing Tcl's test suite to enable/disbale
interactive-style output.  As long as Tcl scripts
treat tcl_interactive as read-only, there's no
problem.

Some Tcl code does write to tcl_interactive, though,
notably tkcon, and the "console for Unix" at the
Wiki, so we should check whether this change
breaks them, and whether Tcl_Main, or they should
be changed to resolve the matter.
