Title: tcl.m4 "common install locations" needs updating for tcl 9.0 and possible restoring 8.6/8.5

Description:
The checks in the section:
"# check in a few common install locations"

should be updated for 9.0.

Lines like:
"`ls -d /usr/local/lib/tcl/tcl8.7 2>/dev/null"


Also, why were the 8.6 and 8.5 checks removed?
People might still be building or need to be building against those versions.

No patch, and of course any changes would need to be applied to everything else that uses tcl.m4.

I hope [e4a85bb1455cc282|this] is what's meant.

I don't see 8.6/8.5 removed anywhere .... but adding 8.7/9.0 is a logical step.

Thanks for the report!
