The Perl/TK package fails to execute even simple Perl/TK programs with
the 'default' installation.  That is starting with a brand new
installation of Cygwin, letting it only install the defaults and adding
only the Perl/TK (perl-Tk) results in a segmentation violation when
calling the first Perl/TK function on the main window.

After tedious research, I've figured out that the missing package
is: libwmf.

I request that the perl-tk package maintainer please add this
dependency.

Thank you.

Brett
