Summary:                    VTK 5.6.1 fails to build against Tcl 8.6.1.1 due to
errorline being declared private in the Tcl_Interp structure
Description: 

The problem is that by default, the members of the Tcl_Interp structure are no
longer visible by default in the public header.

As a result errorLine is not accessible, and should instead be accessed using
Tcl_GetErrorLine

This issue appears to have already been raised on the developer list:

http://www.vtk.org/pipermail/vtk-developers/2010-June/007993.html

But no bug appears to have been filed and checking the latest source from git,
VTK/Common/vtkTclUtil.cxx still uses the errorLine rather then Tcl_GetErrorLine.
