--- Comment #4 from Pietro Cerutti <gahr at FreeBSD.org> ---
libexpect(3) starts with 

       #include expect_tcl.h
       Expect_Init(interp);

       cc files... -lexpect5.20 -ltcl7.5 -lm

so you see that somehow tcl is included and linked against.

I think they assume that interp is a correctly initialized interpreter.

I agree that the documentation could be improved to assume less and explain
more. Please report this upstream.

Thank you,
