  What output do you see from "cygcheck -f /lib/libtcl84.a" ?  I have this
version:

/gnu/gdb/gdb-6.6 $ cygcheck -f /lib/libtcl84.a
tcltk-20060202-1

and it certainly does have the various functions listed:

/gnu/gdb/gdb-6.6 $ nm /lib/libtcl84.a  | grep Async
00000000 T _Tcl_AsyncReady
00000000 I __imp__Tcl_AsyncReady
00000000 T _Tcl_AsyncMark
00000000 I __imp__Tcl_AsyncMark
00000000 T _Tcl_AsyncInvoke
00000000 I __imp__Tcl_AsyncInvoke
00000000 T _Tcl_AsyncDelete
00000000 I __imp__Tcl_AsyncDelete
00000000 T _Tcl_AsyncCreate
00000000 I __imp__Tcl_AsyncCreate
00000000 T _TclFinalizeAsync
00000000 I __imp__TclFinalizeAsync
/gnu/gdb/gdb-6.6 $ nm /lib/libtcl84.a  | grep '\(Exit\|Init\|Alloc\)$'
00000000 T _TclpThreadExit
00000000 I __imp__TclpThreadExit
00000000 T _TclpAlloc
00000000 I __imp__TclpAlloc
00000000 T _Tcl_Init
00000000 I __imp__Tcl_Init
00000000 T _Tcl_Exit
00000000 I __imp__Tcl_Exit
00000000 T _Tcl_DStringInit
00000000 I __imp__Tcl_DStringInit
00000000 T _Tcl_AttemptAlloc
00000000 I __imp__Tcl_AttemptAlloc
00000000 T _Tcl_Alloc
00000000 I __imp__Tcl_Alloc
00000000 T _TclWinInit
00000000 I __imp__TclWinInit
00000000 T _TclInterpInit
00000000 I __imp__TclInterpInit
