Hi José.

Make sure to install both the tcl package and the matching tcl-devel 
package so that you get all the required headers. In addition, you and 
hopefully the autoconf/make scripts for whatever wants to allow loading 
of Tcl as a library will be able to find everything it needs from 
/usr/lib/tclConfig.sh which is installed with the tcl-devel package.

SQLite was actually developed primarily as a lightweight SQL-based 
library for Tcl by Tcl developers so its build tools should play nice by 
default.

I'd also install the stock Cygwin sqlite3 & tcl-sqlite3 packages which 
may provide what you need without having to rebuild and will at least 
act as a reference.
