Oh.  :-)

Redhat: version 6.1.
tcl and tk: version 8.0.5-30 (these came with Redhat 6.1)

The R rpm I believe I got from CRAN, and it should be built for Redhat 6.x.

10 $ rpm -q R-base -i

I will.  (I just have to decide whether to install the needed development
libraries or upgrade rpm. :-)

Setting TCL_LIBRARY to /usr/lib/tcl8.0 helped.
