[Starkit] Problems compiling TclKit 8.5a4

I compile Tclkit8.4 with threads support on windows with MinGW, which works fine. The Thread extension is statically linked with kitsh (needs to compile with --disable-shared) and can be loaded from Tcl scripts at runtime with

load {} Thread.

This works for me on both, Linux and WinXP. However, the runtime.kit could be updated to contain a lib/thread/pkgIndex.tcl file that does this job on "package require Thread". Regarding 8.5, I don't think that this is different...
