I noticed after a recent update that parts of the tcl test suite started failing. I 
finally tracked it down to the fact that I was NOT running with '-G'. Running parrot 
with -G gets me the expected output, leaving it off causes some repeatable failures.

With a cvs fresh checkout (not update):

% perl Configure.pl
% make
% (cd dynclasses && make)
% cd languages/tcl && make
% make test
