The guy is crazy, that script does more than everything, he just found the  
answer to the ultimate question of the universe!
I'm impressed by his work, it build tcl/tk (patched for unicode), amsn  
(patched to fix/add many things), quicktimetcl (also patched), libgrowl  
(patched), tclcarbon (also patched), it then creates on the fly icons, and  
creates a fully functional package, it even uses a toolt o relink the  
paths to the libraries in the dylibs from the path he had locally to a  
relative path of the directory where it will be executed in the user's  
environment...
I think that if you're able to launch the script, it works, and everything  
is fine, then use it!
but about the patches, I think we should look at what it does, and send  
the patch to the original teams.. for amsn, we should look at what he  
patches into amsn and see if we should put that in the SVN trunk or not  
(or 0.96 branch). For tcl/tk, send them the patch of course, and the  
others (quicktime, tclcarbon...) see if it's worth it, maybe send the  
patch..
