[Paraview] Tcl installation path in 2.4.0

[Amy Squillacote]

This is a known problem, and it has been corrected on the CVS branch 
for ParaView 2.4 (CVS tag ParaView-2-4).  (It was a problem in the 
code, not in how you tried to install ParaView.)  If you check this 
version out from CVS, you should be able to compile and install 
ParaView as you did for ParaView 2.2.
