Andrew,
[Peter, please comment on my last question and the patch in general. Is
such a patch desired now that Cygwin supports a more recent Tcl/Tk
version? Would you be willing to help me polish it since I'm not sure
how to resolve some of the issues properly?]

No problem.
Attached is a *work-in-progress* patch that enables PostgreSQL CVS to
build "cleanly" when configured as follows:
$ configure --with-tcl --with-tclconfig=/usr/lib ...
Note that I needed to configure --with-tclconfig, but I did *not* have to
do the following:
$ ln -s /bin/tclsh83 /bin/tclsh
$ ln -s /bin/wish83.exe /bin/wish
to get configure to succeed. However, see my final point below...

gcc 3.2 did not produce the above warning! I wish that it did, because
it would have saved me some time. The above is "worked around" in my
patch by including pg_config_os.h before tcl.h. Unfortunately, there is
a namespace clash with DLLIMPORT in the PostgreSQL and TCL sources. I'm
not sure what is the best way to fix this long term.
BTW, I'm wondering if PostgreSQL's autoconf stuff (i.e., config/tcl.m4)
should be modified to find Cygwin's tclsh (i.e., tclsh83.exe)? I
believe that this should obviate the need to configure --with-tclconfig.
Thanks,
Jason
