As far as I can tell, most of the library appears to be written
in Tcl.  The language implementation appears to be in C.

Are you trying to make some point about C code that uses some kind
of replacement for fopen() rather than using fopen() itself?  If so,
please be more specific.  Posting the URLs for two large source
trees that may or may not contain something relevant is not helpful.

On the other hand, if you don't *want* to make your point clearly,
that's fine with me.
