Description:
Attached is a full patch that adds support for 
Windows/CE to Tcl.  It is based off Rainer Keuchel's 
original port and requires his celib for building.

Known issues:
 * [X] in the corner doesn't close app
 * exec not supported

The sources are set up in such that they coexist in the 
regular win/ subdir, you just configure like so:

$ /cygdrive/z/cvs/tcl/tcl8.4ce/win/configure \
   --prefix=C:/build/inst/tclce \
   --enable-wince=300,ARM \
   --with-celib=/cygdrive/z/src/celib-palm-3.0

Also, they require changes to the default celib devel stuff 
from Rainer Keuchel (http://www.rainer-
keuchel.de/software.html - thanks for the porting library 
Rainer!), in order to be more WinCE3.0 compliant.  I 
also want to fix the known issues (at least the first
two) before creating a mega-patch for others to test from 
source.

The changes necessary for TEA extensions are already 
commited to the sampleextension source base.  I've 
compiled and tested the sampleextension and tktable 
successfully.  Porting of extensions to WinCE3.0 should 
be rather easy.

Since Windows CE is not supported by anyone, we can close this.
