* tests/pkg.test: Backport to 8.4 (Don Porter's work):
- * generic/tclPkg.c: When no requirements are supplied to a
- [package require $pkg] and [package unknown] is invoked to find
- a satisfying package, pass the requirement argument "0-" (which
- means all versions are acceptable). This permits a registered
- [package unknown] command to call [package vsatisfies
- $testVersion {*}$args] without any special handling of the empty
- $args case. This fixes/avoids a bug in
- [::tcl::tm::UnknownHandler] that was causing old TM versions to
- be provided in preference to newer TM versions. Thanks to
- Julian Noble for discovering the issue.

SUMMARY OF INCOMPATIBILITIES AND FIXES

- The behaviour of expressions containing constants that appear
- positive but which have a negative internal representation will
- change, as these will now usually be interpreted as wide
- integers. This is always fixable by replacing the constant with
- int(constant).

Extensions creating new channel types will need to be altered as
different types are now in use in those areas. The change to the
- declaration of Tcl_FSStat and Tcl_FSLstat (which are the new
- preferred API in any case) are less serious as no non-alpha
