possibility of running tests from a vfs.

OK, I'll have to acquiesve to Don on that point, although 
we've never had a package reach .10.  In any case, the 
revised patch should be used.  Handing back to Vince to 
commit.

Sorry, Jeff, that won't fly.  Even if we restrict to
M.m, that will still break when we release Tcl 8.10 .

So we don't release 8.10, I know, in order to accomodate
those that have done such {$tcl_version > 7.6} foolishness
in the past, but that's no reason not to code it right
in new code.

The validity of comparing [info tclversion] as a floating 
point number has been discussed before, and it has always 
been determined that it is OK - tclversion, for reasons 
of "cleanliness" and backwards compatability will always 
return just M.m, or a valid floating point number.  It 
certainly is easier to read than the alternative.

Here's a revised patch.  You should not
treat package version numbers (like the
result of [info tclversion]) as floating
point values.  That's not what they are.
