I don't think this is the right way to do this. Cygwin users use the versions of tcl, tk, tix, etc from sources.redhat.com. This patch will mean that they won't get a "standard" part of these packages. What I think is called for is a new install target which doesn't install "useless" stuff like this. We used to have, for example, an install target called "install-minimal" which would only install the DLLs and library files from tcl et al. I think this would be a better approach. Keith
