Note that any script-level hooks might need an extension anyway. It's
not such a bad thing to need to say [package require debug] though. I
have seen discussions of such a thing several times in the past too.

I just browsed the TIP list and saw that an appropriate TIP (#86) has
already been made and a patch (against Tcl8.4.9) is supplied. The
status is "draft" - what exactly does that mean... is it what it sounds
like?
Can this one go in 8.5?

BTW, what's the status of TIP #131 :-)?
