zipfs is a new facility in tcl 9.x where various data files are bundled
into a zip archive, rather being separately installed.
Then that zip is embedded into libtcl.so from Makefile, thusly:
cat ${TCL_ZIP_FILE} >> ${LIB_FILE}
This is a major case of face meeting palm: any binary object
processing on the resulting .so file discards the extra data
at the end, and that's exactly what happens in do_package(),
resulting in a tcl installation without any language libraries.
This is not caught by ptest because it runs against a private
copy of the source tree.
Additionally, it helps to have data files on target systems
as files that can be viewed and edited.
