see TIP #88, which will be revived at some point hopefully.

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work, except for the
parts of that patch that have already been applied.  But
then the patch utility would just skip them with a warning.

It would be nicer, though, to fix the executables that
you're piping to to have them respect EOF on the write side
of the pipe (write side as viewed from the child).

shame.
will the old patch work on tcl 8.5?
If not can a new patch be created.

too much bureaucracy to add a new command...  To get the
async close patch in, I wasn't able to add [kill].  To add
[kill], A TIP will have to be created, discussed, edited,
discussed, rejected, rewritten, discussed more, voted on,
then applied..
