Solution for this aolServer issue

i´m installing aolserver4.5.0, postgresql-7.4.19.tar.gz & tcl8.4.18-src.tar.gz

The aolserver gives me the same problem (see below) and the solution proposed at the end works fine.

Does anyone has faced similar problem?
Any ideas what could I do about it?

This is a known issue for aolserver 4.5 with a resonably recent Tcl.
You need to patch a bit. I use something like this on Debian:

diff -urNad aolserver4~/configure aolserver4/configure
