no rhyme for "castle"

[Jonathan Lighter]

Famed star Lorraine Bracco clearly pronounced the "t" in "castle"
while introducing the film _The Black Room_ on TNT this week.

That means she can't rhyme it successfully with any single English
word. That could be a problem at some point.

Is the t-full pronunciation widespread?
