The tcltk package in cygwin has some cygwin knowledge but it is not
complete.

Maybe we can stop talking about this now?

If you want to help, check out (via CVS) the tcl/tk 8.3 sources from
sources.redhat.com and offer your help in the insight mailing list for
tracking down problems.

As I said previously, future packages will be based on this.  If you
want to improve things, stop complaining and start contributing.
