I can compile (and being using for several months with zero problems)
insight 5.2.1 with Cygwin/GCC2.95.3.
This problems raises only when trying to compile insight 5.2.1with
Cygwin/GCC3.2
Thought you could be interested in it...

Marco,
I would not recommend using 5.2.1 with cygwin. It has issues. See
http://sources.redhat.com/insight/cygwin.html.

<sorta rant>
List,
Second, I am amazed that I keep getting requests for how to fix this
simple problem. Insight is a debugger, so I presume that people
downloading it are at least vaguely familiar with programming. Why can
people not figure out how to fix the simplest of errors?

The error message says it all: In TclWinSetInterfaces, the static symbol
"tclWinTCharEncoding" is marked dllexport. Get it? The STATIC symbol is
exported...
If people still don't get it, cgf has committed a patch to fix this.
Search the mailing list or take a peek at tcl in CVS to find the patch.
