Re: cygwin + postgres 7.1 + tcl support

I had the same problem a while back, and I tried both of these things to no
avail. I couldn't get configure to work on the tcl sources, so I couldn't
build tcl in the first place.

I also noticed that the binary distro of postgres doesn't have tcl built in,
even though a few months ago Jason sent out the build command he was going
to use, and it included --with-tcl. I'm guessing he didn't have any luck
either?

At any rate, has anyone actually been able to do this (compile libpgtcl on
cygwin)?

where XX is the tcl/tk version installed with cygwin). Configure doesn't
seem to add this automatically, even if you passed a --with-tcl=DIR option.
Solutions are:

as it is a mingw32 one, not a cygwin, as PostgreSQL should become. You
either build your own cygwin version for tcl/tk or pick an already built
one. [... where the discussion becomes OT, the cygwin port of tcl/tk could
exist in two flavours, the MS windowing environment or the X window one,
bla, bla]
