-Q1P- Why do I get invalid command name when I start wish?

From: -I- Questions on building Tcl and friends on your system

A1S. Often when folks trying to build a new version of wish get done
and try to start it up, they get errors such as:

>$ /projects/xopsrc/wishx3.6a            
>Error: invalid command name "tk_bindForTraversal"
>invalid command name "tk_bindForTraversal"
>    while executing
>"tk_bindForTraversal Entry"
>    (file "/projects/xopsrc/Tclsrc/v7/lib/3.6a/tk.tcl" line 98)
>    invoked from within
>"source $tk_library/tk.tcl"
>    invoked from within

The _real_ problem is, in all likelihood, that they do not have
something either configured or installed properly.  If the command name
is really valid, then auto_path isn't set right, an external variable
pointing to the directories is overriding the default location, or things
didn't install.
