Hmm. If so, it's quite a weird way to handle this, rather than loading the modules with full path. Is that a Tcl "feature", or is it how certain Tcl apps are implemented? I can't really believe the former... Assuming I create a Cygwin snapshot adding a call to SetDllDirectory in the next couple of days, would you be willing to test if your Tcl stuff still works?
