responsible for downloading the source code for the appropriate version that
will compile and link against the current version of Tcl (user requested
version can be found in "TCLVERS", while the actual version must be requested
from the "tclConfig.sh" script), compiling it, installing a functional copy
into the per-project "inst" directory, and installing anything that needs to
be in the Tclkit's VFS root into the per-project "out" directory.

Any additional projects can be included simply by creating the appropriate
directory in the same directory as the "kitcreator" script, creating a
"build.sh" script in that directory that follows the above procedure, and then
referencing that directory in "KITCREATOR_PKGS" for the "kitcreator" invocation.
In this way KitCreator is "pluggable".  Included packages may be either
statically or dynamically linked.  If it is statically linked then the module
name must be the name of the directory -- that is, if the directory were "foo",
KitCreator will expect to initialize the module statically using Foo_Init().

The exception to this is the "kitsh" and "kitdll" projects.  They are the glue
that binds all the individual projects together into a single executable.  Its
build script does not create an "inst" or an "out" directory because it is not
a library.  Instead, it collects all the other project's "out" directories
into a single directory (starpack.vfs), as well a static file (boot.tcl).
It then compiles the source code, and then installs the VFS onto the resulting
executable.  The VFS is created by the "installvfs.tcl" script for Kitsh.  For
KitDLL the VFS is created by "dir2c.tcl".

If the "mk4tcl" project fails to build (or is not requested to be built),
the rest of the project will be built using zip files instead of Metakit
databases.

To create the storage database, one of two Tclkits is used (tried in this
order):
