This is due to Tcl's stricter handling of package numbers provided  
versus actually set up.  I will fix this for the next round of tclkit  
builds.

For now, you should be able to work around this by adding this line  
to your app or to some pkgIndex.tcl in your starkits:

	package ifneeded registry 1.2 {load {} registry}

No need to actually include the code, it's part of every Windows tclkit.
