I make my Tcl extension be loadable under all patchlevels
of a given Tcl version (but *not* under a different minor

Replace the Tcl_PkgRequire() call above with:

Tcl_InitStubs(interp, TCL_VERSION, 1);

Okay, so _without_ stubs, you recommend to use

Tcl_InitStubs(interp, TCL_VERSION, 1);

(works with all patchlevels of the MAJ.MIN version)
and _with_ stubs:

Tcl_InitStubs(interp, TCL_VERSION, 0);

(works with newer minor versions as well).

The results of a first test look reasonable.

Thanks,
Olaf
