Whoops, re-opening.
This apparently isn't quite ready yet, as converting tcl to use the new
syntax results in a nearly- complete fail of the test suite.
Per Audrey: .loadlib 'dynlexpad' stopped working, because
Parrot_register_HLL breaks on non- HLL-group .so files.
Err, t/dynpmc/dynlexpad.t is using .loadlib and is testing fine. Please try to
provide a minimal parrot test showing the problem.

Trying (though it remained a bit elusive), but if you "make
realclean", and then change
languages/tcl/src/tclsh.pir so that it uses .loadlib instead
of :immediate, and then
"make", cd into languages/tcl and "make test", you'll notice that all
tests fail with:

# got: 'set_string_keyed() not implemented in class 'T'
# current instr.: '__prepare_lib' pc 19483 (runtime/tcllib.pir:122)
# called from Sub '_main' pc 3 (src/tclsh.pir:42)

Changing it back to :immediate makes tests pass again.

Alternately, skipping the Parrot_register_HLL part in IMCC makes
tests pass again.

Thanks,
Audrey

After several rounds of trial-and-error, I've committed r13294 that
works around the problem:

* Tcl: Change back to .loadlib.

Simply adding this line to tcllib.pir:
.loadlib 'dynlexpad'
appears to fix the problem.

According to leo, .loadlib acts like a dummy HLL, so there is
an order dependency to be observed by .loadlib calls.

This may not be a problem if Parrot_register_HLL_type takes the
HLL name instead of the current max HLL_idx, but the current state
renders this workaround neccessary.

So this ticket is probably good to be closed again, though it still
leaves me somewhat puzzled. :)
