It seems you're aware of existing builds mirrored to iBiblio. (It was
most likely me who mirrored those, for completeness, but honestly I've
never used Tcl and don't know of many apps using it. Still, it sounds
promising.)

Have you tested your builds? Just because something compiles doesn't
mean it works, esp. if the authors only tested in *nix. Especially old
DJGPP ports, which used to work, usually rot and break. It's a bit
sad, really. I'm not trying to be too cynical or pessimistic, but
broken builds are annoying.

But if you've tried them and they work for you, great! Otherwise ....
