Yes, this is what should be there.

In looking through the source files I maintain for my distribution,
I see that _I_ inadvertantly hardcoded something in tclcomp.sh that
should be a dynamic setting.  To correct the situation, please do the
following:

<login as 'mcidas'>
cd mcidas7.5/src
edit tclcomp.sh and

change:

#
# <<<<< UPC mod 19990423 >>>>>
# Set RUNTIME_PATH variable for SunOS based on compiler used
#
RUNTIME_PATH=
case \`uname -sr\` in
"SunOS 5."*)
    if [ -z "\$VENDOR" ]; then
        RUNTIME_PATH="-Wl,-R,/home/mcidas/solarisx86/tcl/lib"
    else
        RUNTIME_PATH="-R /home/mcidas/solarisx86/tcl/lib"
    fi
    ;;

to:

#
# <<<<< UPC mod 19990423 >>>>>
# Set RUNTIME_PATH variable for SunOS based on compiler used
#
RUNTIME_PATH=
case \`uname -sr\` in
"SunOS 5."*)
    if [ -z "\$VENDOR" ]; then
        RUNTIME_PATH="-Wl,-R,$TCL_PREFIX/lib"
    else
        RUNTIME_PATH="-R $TCL_PREFIX/lib"
    fi
    ;;

After making this change, you will need to redo the Tcl/Tk stuff and
remake 'mcwish' again:

cd ~/mcidas7.5/tcl/unix
make distclean
cd ~/mcidas7.5/tk/unix
make distclean
cd ~/mcidas7.5/src
rm tclcomp
make mcwish

Sorry for the screwup.  Let me know if this doesn't fix the problem.
