you're right.
In my account, default tcl version was 7.5.
I changed the path to the upper version (8.0.4, which is the highest version 
available in my account), then the compilation succeded.
Tcl which is same or upper 8.0 version can understand 'namespace'.

I also had the following error during installing, but solved by changing 
the name of variable.

I found there is only 2 'bcache's in 'aodv' directory.
I changed the name and the installation completed.

Thank you for your help!
