What's the best place to report problems with the new unixish non-Insight Tcl/Tk Cygwin port? (8.5.11, uptodate Cygwin on Win7 64bit)

I'm able to hang it by asking about non-existent files/directories on the filesystem:

$ tclsh
% set a [file exists /cygdrive ]
1
% set a [file exists /cygdrive2 ]
(hangs, must ctrl-c, should report 0)


$ tclsh
% set a [file exists /gffg ]
(hangs, must ctrl-c, should report 0)


$ tclsh
% set a [file exists /bin ]
1
% set a [file exists /usr ]
1
% set a [file exists /banana ]
0
% set a [file exists /gffg ]
(hangs, must ctrl-c, should report 0)

and I'm also seeing some Tk oddities with e.g. tiling of PhotoImages in my app that aren't present on other platforms.

thanks,
