failing to compile expectk

[Richard Lister]

Hi folks

I'm trying to build a working expectk using the expect-20030128
source from cygwin. Tcl/Tk and expect build fine. I noted the
following comment in the file expect-20030128-1/expect/Makefile.in:

  # XXX Temporarily commented out until expectk is working again.
  #X11_PROGS = @X_PROGS@

Nevertheless, I edited the Makefile and managed to compile
expectk.exe, but it segfaults when run.

Googling produces quite a few comments about how it is
generally problematic to compile Tcl/Tk on cygwin.

Has anyone had any success producing an expectk binary?

Thanks
Ric
