You often do need to worry about versions, sadly. This is why different distributions often have their own packages. You may be able to be more specific about what version it uses, i.e. -lgtk-version instead of -lgtk, so that it gives 'file not found' instead of crashing when supplied with an incompatible version. Libraries are usually available under many names from the most generic to the most specific, allowing programs to be as picky or generic as will work:

Code:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      11 Aug 26  2014 libpam.so -> libpam.so.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      16 Aug 26  2014 libpam.so.0 -> libpam.so.0.83.1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root   55760 Aug 26  2014 libpam.so.0.83.1

so linking to generic 'pam' means 'I expect this program to work with any PAM from any era', linking to pam-0 means 'I expect this to work with any version 0.*', and linking to pam-0.83.1 means 'this program will work with only this exact version of pam'

If you could find out what version of GTK you have in your emulation packages that might help solve the mystery. Try ldd ./myprogram to see what libraries it has ended up using.

Lastly, I'd note that you haven't actually ruled out a bug in your program yet. More may have changed than you realized in moving from one machine to another of any bit width. Recompile with debugging info, and check through your program step by step as it runs on the 64-bit machine (i.e. using gdb).

platform::shell

platform::shell(n)					       Tcl Bundled Packages						platform::shell(n)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       platform::shell - System identification support code and utilities

SYNOPSIS

       package require platform::shell ?1.1.4?

       platform::shell::generic shell
       platform::shell::identify shell
       platform::shell::platform shell
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       The platform::shell package provides several utility commands useful for the identification of the architecture of a specific Tcl shell.

       This  package  allows the identification of the architecture of a specific Tcl shell different from the shell running the package. The only
       requirement is that the other shell (identified by its path), is actually executable on the current machine.

       While for most platform this means that the architecture of the interrogated shell is identical to the architecture of  the  running  shell
       this  is  not generally true. A counter example are all platforms which have 32 and 64 bit variants and where a 64bit system is able to run
       32bit code. For these running and interrogated shell may have different 32/64 bit settings and thus different identifiers.

       For applications like a code repository it is important to identify the architecture of the shell which will  actually  run  the  installed
       packages, versus the architecture of the shell running the repository software.

COMMANDS

       platform::shell::identify shell
	      This command does the same identification as platform::identify, for the specified Tcl shell, in contrast to the running shell.

       platform::shell::generic shell
	      This command does the same identification as platform::generic, for the specified Tcl shell, in contrast to the running shell.

       platform::shell::platform shell
	      This command returns the contents of tcl_platform(platform) for the specified Tcl shell.
