There is a page on the tcl wiki that points to change lists for all
versions since 7.4...

http://wiki.tcl.tk/405

They list every point release; I think you only need to worry about
the "major" ones, e.g. 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5, 8.6.

It's pretty terse material, but looks like it ought to be somewhat helpful.
