guard,

This looks like you don't want to use PostgreSQL from tcl/tk scripts (where pgtcl.dll is needed), but you'd rather want
touse tcl programming language from inside PostgreSQL (where should be needed pltcl.dll). To use a language from those
insrc/pl, you should first either do a createlang command, or a CREATE LANGUAGE statement for a database.
Here's how you should build pltcl.dll.
The source is found in src/pl/tcl. There are some differences from building pgtcl, but here are the steps:
1. You should edit by hand Makefile.tcldefs
a. You must set TCL_SHARED_BUILD = 1 , else the make would notice the extension can't be build.
b. For the other lines having right values in form @VALUE@, you should delete the @VALUES@.
2. Like the case of pgtcl, the dllwrap command won't add "-ltcl80" option, so you must add it by hand. In my case, I
hadto add "-L../../backend -lpostgres" also.
My dllwrap command was:
"dllwrap -o pltcl.dll --def pltcl.def pltcl.o ../../../src/utils/dllinit.o -lcygipc -lcrypt -ltcl80 -L../../backend
-lpostgres"
That should be it.
