1: Cleaned up compile instructions on wiki (tcl, and aolserver)

Hi. I went through two wiki pages, got rid of the repeating command crap and made sure they're consistant... could lots of you reading this give them a try please, and reply with success/failure reports here so I could make changes? Thanks in advance.

Hi Jim,

The changes seem consistent, except for the change made in the part about editing tdom/unix/CONFIG in aolserver-install. Those manual install documents attempt to follow the Cognovis scripts[1] for the most part (except using aolserver 4.0.10 instead of 4.5), and it specifies --with-tcl=/usr/local/src/aolserver40r10/tcl.8.4.14/unix

So that miniscule portion has been reverted.

Thanks for the clean up. The value of the "repeating command crap" was for convenient copy/pasting, and that seems redundant now, since the Cognovis scripts are current and published.
