here's what is in /usr/lib/tclConfig.sh - maybe there's a clue in there - or maybe it's just a problem with the Cygwin-supplied package - I have deliberately not tried to fix this by installing my own build of tcl.



The Cygwin-supplied package is evidently broken beyond belief. configure is correctly copying these settings from tclConfig.sh, but the data therein is wrong (or at least useless). If tclConfig.sh doesn't provide usable information, that is not our problem to fix.





I am abandoning further effort altogether, because of this:

adunstan: ~/tcl8.4.9/win
$ ./configure --enable-shared
creating cache ./config.cache
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works... yes
checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) is a cross-compiler... no
checking whether we are using GNU C... yes
checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
checking for ar... ar

checking for windres... windres
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for Cygwin environment... yes
configure: error: Compiling under Cygwin is not currently supported.
A maintainer for the Cygwin port of Tcl/Tk is needed. See the README
file for information about building with Mingw.
