Hi Tim,

I downloaded the 3.6.156 tar-ball and compiled. As usual I have to do
the whole autoconf chain as my Debian has newer versions.

Goes down like a lead Zeppelin when trying to run svg test.svg on the
tcl command line.
Only note on the command line is:

alloc: invalid block: 0x261bd60: ef ef 85
Aborted

I must go back to start and see if I can enable any debugging.
