[Magic-dev] Magic 7.3.86 - failure to load tclmagic.so

Hello,

I am trying to test Magic, but I run into a problem right away.  Using Suse 
9.3 on an AMD64 (in 64-bit mode) I find that calling magic version 86 results 
in the following message:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
error in slave eval:
couldn't load file "/usr/local/lib/magic/tcl/tclmagic.so" cannot open shared 
object file: no such file or directory
Main console display active (Tcl8.4.9 / TK8.4.9)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The file is clearly there.  Running as root has no effect, so it is not a 
matter of incorrect permissions.  I have switched back and forth between 
compiling version 74 and 86 -- always with the same result.  Version 74 
starts up properly, but 86 does not.  

Is it just me?  Any suggestions?

Oh, I understand that these versions of magic support non-manhattan drawing.  
Is non-manhattan parasitic extraction and connectivity working also?

Thanks,
