 (hmm, works for me..)

 ? both tcl8.4-dev and tcl8.5-dev are in all debians from lenny to sid. no
 need to pull anything in from another version.
  http://packages.debian.org/tcl8.4-dev
  http://packages.debian.org/tcl8.5-dev

 GRASS will work with either version, if you have one installed already you
 can edit the debian/control file to match it.

 anyway, tcl/tk can be switched off in grass7 without too many ill effects.
 (the main one is you lose access to classic nviz)

 That is new to me and I don't understand the reason for it at all.

 I build trunk all the time on a pretty vanilla squeeze, with no problems.
 here's the build script I use:

 (works on both grass 6.x and 7; change -march= to match your cpu model,
 see the gcc man page for options; ./configure ignores any switch which
 isn't relevant)

 {{{
 renice +17 -p $$

     --with-tcltk-includes=/usr/include/tcl8.5 --with-cairo \

 I do a package build of 6.4.svn on sid fairly regularly (any time I/we
 change the DebianGIS package files, and pre-release testing) and haven't
 seen that. I've never tried to package grass/trunk though, so maybe
 there's some patch it doesn't like.

 can you run grass70 from the src/bin.x86_64-.../grass7 python script? if
 so, try symlinking that into ~/bin/grass70

  * you need to edit that python script to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the right
 place. `make install` should do that for you (in the
 /usr/local/grass7.0.svn installed copy). wrt your original problem,
 perhaps that replacement is faulty?

 for the real-install make target's sed substitution, see
  trunk/include/Make/Install.make
