This patch still uses configure switch for enabling feature.

For enabling based on tcl version we have 2 posibilites:
 1) having feature enabled by default, but in pltcl.c check for tcl
    version and disable it for old versions
 2) enable or disable at configure time based on tcl version, but there
    are problem - current configure don't checks for tcl version at all
    and my configure skills not enought for adding this
