Log Message:

	* library/tm.tcl (::tcl::tm::UnknownHandler): Changed 'source' to
	  'source -encoding utf-8'. This fixes a portability problem of
	  Tcl Modules pointed out by Don Porter. By using plain 'source'
	  we were at the mercy of 'encoding system', making modules less
	  portable than they could be. The exact scenario: A writes a TM
	  in some weird encoding which is A's system encoding, distributes
	  it, and somewhere else it cannot be read/used because the system
	  encoding is different. Forcing the use of utf-8 makes the module
	  portable.

	  ***INCOMPATIBILITY*** for all Tcl Modules already written in
	  non-utf-8 compatible encodings.
