DejaGnu: proc "tclPkgUnknown ..." does not exist

Problem
When I try to include a tcl package, e.g. `textutil::string':
package require textutil::string
DejaGnu gives an error:
ERROR: (DejaGnu) proc "tclPkgUnknown textutil::string {}" does not exist.
Cause
DejaGnu overwrites `unknown()', the function that is called to attempt autoloading.
Workaround
Re-install the `unknown' procedure by re-sourcing `init.tcl':
source [file join [info library] init.tcl]
A good location for this would be the `tool' init file (lib/<tool>.exp).
