It's all pretty disappointing, compared to ActiveState's implementation,
which looks much better and requires no setup, no extraneous directories
on my path, and no otherwise uneeded daemons.
A little research reveals this issue has been around for a while and is
apparently well-known by everyone but me :)

However I'd like PerlTk to fall back to using Windows widgets much like
rxvt will do a Windows window if there is no X server to connect to.
Just how rxvt manages to use both X11 and Win32GUI is unique, as has
been discussed before at length. Don't expect anything else X11 based
to do that on Cygwin.
perl-Tk is X11-based because it *does not compile* on Cygwin for Win32.
PTC.
