Whoever built tile.kit probably did not have access to a FreeBSD =
machine.  One

Yes, it's a simple recompilation.  You would need to grab the =
appropriate
sources (ideally the same as the kit uses, for consistency with the =
runtime
tcl files), and just do the usual configure/make on it.  It's the =
install that
has to be hand-twiddled to get into the kit correctly.
