Title:	CFLAGS broken at configure time

Description:	autoconf uses CFLAGS at configure time when performing many checks. However, tcl.m4 adds the strings `${CFLAGS_DEFAULT}` and `${CFLAGS_WARNING}`. Because of this, any autoconf test that passes CFLAGS to the compiler at runtime fails. One example is `AC_TYPE_OFF_T`. On a Linux system this test currently fails, and autoconf erroneously configures the build as if there was no such type available. In one extension this leads to the error, `<command-line>: error: two or more data types in declaration specifiers`
User Comments:	jan.nijtmans added on 2018-10-17 22:16:41: Since this change broke - somehow - tclsqlite and thread, I had to revert it. So, something better needs to be invented to fix this. Sorry! jan.nijtmans added on 2018-08-13 10:32:01: This - to me - looks like the right thing to do. Thanks! +1 pooryorick added on 2018-08-13 09:46:40: Fixed in [a413acb98d88a779].
