According to http://sources.redhat.com/insight a new Tcl/Tk has been 
imported, and some extra fixes for cygwin added that should probably 
address this.

So all you have to do now is wait for the cygwin package to be released, 
which will be announced on this list.

To clarify... by which I mean the new Tcl/Tk to be made into a cygwin 
package that can be retrieved by setup.exe. Not a new release of cygwin 
itself :-).

I am a bit confused, from here:

http://cygwin.com/lists.html

It would seem like this was the right list to
post cygwin specific problems with UNIX tools that
come with Cygwin.   Perhaps the web page should be updated to
include three and not two exceptions,  XFree, programs not from
cygwin.com and tcl/tk.

The tclsh84 does not understand cygwin style paths.
So, if you do tclsh /cygdrive/c/foo/bar.tcl it can not
find the file.   

This tcl does:
 ftp://ftp.nanotech.wisc.edu/pub/khan/tcl/tcltk-8.3.4-cygwin/

I was wondering if Mumit Khan's patches for tcl could be incorporated
into the cygwin tclsh.   It seems sort of bad that the default
tcl that comes with cygwin does not fully understand cygwin paths.
