I understand your preference to compile your own installation.

My first recommendation, though, is that you download and install
ActiveState's freely available ActiveTcl binary for Solaris <URL:
http://www.activestate.com/Products/Download/Get.plex?id=ActiveTcl&a=e >.
It includes all the packages you require (and more).

If you insist on generating your own executable and binaries, see

for locations.
