I have never seen this message before (of course all my machines are
Tcl aware) so my question is: In what context does this message appear
or what could have gone wrong at the client's site to produce this
message?



well, teapot is the name of ActiveState's ActiveTcl software
repository, designed to provide packages to a software administrator.

However, using teacup (the activetcl client side of the setup), I
don't see a package named teapot listed.

The steps _I_ would take if this were my problem would be:

1. Recommend the client uninstall the previous activetcl, download the
latest Tcl 8.4 Windows ActiveTcl, and install it
2. Make certain the user has installed my script into a directory
containing nothing else
3. Report the situation to activestate with a high priority assigned.
