I routinely use tclkit from outside the directory tclkit is in on my Debian 
lenny AMD64 system.

I did find that the directory containing the starkit (not just the directory 
containing tclkit) has to be in the PATH in order for tclkit to find the 
starkit if it is not in the same directory, although I do not think this was 
a 64-bit problem.
