Right. This seems to be, on the face of it, the same problem that bit 
the WinCVS users - WinCVS looks for a tcl84.dll in the PATH and 
automatically dynamically loads it, and if it happens to be a 
Cygwin-compiled one, it hangs. This also changed after 1.5.6 - before 
that, it would "work", for some definition of "working".

Someone (I see eyes turning this way :-) needs to debug this, at least 
to understand what changed..
