Description:
I have been trying to compile and install the latest TCL 
in a subdirectory ~/opt of my home directory, so as to avoid
interference with the already-installed TCL.

Following the instructions on http://wiki.tcl.tk/12987#pagetoc90caa595 , I did:

make -C tcl/macosx install INSTALL_ROOT="${HOME}/opt"
make -C tk/macosx  install INSTALL_ROOT="${HOME}/opt"

This produced a working tclsh and wish in
~/opt/usr/local/bin .
However, I noticed that the directory
~/opt/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Versions/8.6/Headers
is missing. 

Strangely, the directory
~/opt/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Versions/8.6/PrivateHeaders
does exist (with contents).

This is annoying since it makes it hard/impossible to build extensions.
