Yes, as you can see if you read the other mail, I have several problems to
build the tcl, tk libraries because a kind of internal error in cc1, so I am
stopped there, without knowing how to go on. Somebody has had a similar
problem, what can I do? I have tried to reinstall it, but the same problem
arises. i don't know if it is a problem of the tc,tlk libraries or it is
just cygwin fault. Should I ask them for help?
