I cannot approve this (not really sure who can), but I remember doing
something similar in a sandbox to fix all the tcl/tk problems on cygwin.
There are several problems with our tcl/tk builds now;
tcl/generic/tclIntDecls.h has bugs, cygtcl.m4 wants to link with
"-e_WinMain@16", which is wrong, and a bunch more that I haven't found.
:-(
I'm trying to package these all up and check them in, but I keep getting
side-tracked. (You worked for Red Hat: you know how that goes.)

Otherwise, as far as I can approve the tcl changes, I've only one
question... Why can I build with cygwin without build problems? (Ok,
expect doesn't build, but tcl/tk were "fine".)
I'll definitely approve the unix/tclConfig.sh thing, though. I never
understood why that was done.
