Re: cygwin + postgres 7.1 + tcl support

[actually I'm very happy now admin-ing my 7.1 with pgaccess, after tweaking near this problem a couple of hours]

It's obvious you don't link libtclXX.a (i.e. you don't have a "-ltclXX.a", where XX is the tcl/tk version installed
withcygwin). Configure doesn't seem to add this automatically, even if you passed a --with-tcl=DIR option. Solutions
are:

1. You add -ltclXX.a by hand to dllwrap command line
2. You don't install the binary distro of tcl/tk that comes with cygwin, as it is a mingw32 one, not a cygwin, as
PostgreSQLshould become. You either build your own cygwin version for tcl/tk or pick an already built one. [... where
thediscussion becomes OT, the cygwin port of tcl/tk could exist in two flavours, the MS windowing environment or the X
windowone, bla, bla]
