Sure. But these should have been picked up from your tclConfig.sh 
and tkConfig.sh files. Since they weren't, I would be quite 
interested to see where your particular Debian version hides them 
in these files.

Hmm... Probably this would break the xtconq build. But for the 
purposes of building x2imf and imf2x this is fine, since they 
don't rely on MIT's Athena widgets, AFAIK.

Yeah, and hacking an autogenerated makefile by hand is not really 
a fix, _in the configury sense of the word. I would like to get my 
hands on your tclConfig.sh and tkConfig.sh files, so that we can 
autogenerate the correct thing.

Thanks. I'll keep it in mind. I'll have to look at my maps to 
see if it is within walking distance of either the Moscone Center 
or the hotel where I am staying....
