The dbgp_tcldebug is written by ActiveState for their Komodo IDE.
I don't think that use with Eclipse is officially supported.
You could try with a free trial of the most recent Komodo version if
it has the same issue. If yes, then you can file a ticket with
ActiveState.
You/Eclipse might have/use an outdated version of the engine.
I do not know how/where eclipse is getting the binary.
Note:
dbgp_tcldebug --version
should print a version number with build number. While that does not
tell you explicitly what it has inside with regard to Tcl 8.6 support
this will be useful information to provide should you file a ticket
with AS. It likely would be the first thing you will be asked for
should you not provide it in the ticket.
