Summary: execing command that starts with 2 fails

Initial Comment:
Tcl Version: 8.4.19
OS: 32 bit and 64 bit Linux
Submitter: Robert Soliday (so...@ap...)
Problem Behavior:

When I try to exec a command of the name 2DSlider I get the error message:
illegal use of | or |& in command
tclPipe.c is flagging the number 2 as a redirection character.

For now I can just create a symlink with a different name but I just thought someone should know about this bug. It took me a while to figure out what the heck was happening.
