Summary: makefile.vc & TCL_LIBRARY

Initial Comment:
Tcl: v8.5a2 HEAD at 06-09-04
OS: WinXPsp2
Built with makefile.vc using VC7

The following errors are encountered when installing 
on to a system that doesn't have an existing 
installation...

"Installing message catalogs"
        set TCL_LIBRARY="../library"
        .\Release\tclsh85.exe "../tools/installData.tc
l"  "../library/msgs" "C:\Program 
Files\Tcl\lib\tcl8.5/msgs"
application-specific initialization failed: Can't 
find a usable init.tcl in the
following directories:
    D:/src_tcl/win/\../library\ 
D:/src_tcl/win/lib/tcl8.5 {C:\Program 
Files\Tcl\lib\tcl8.5}

This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed 
properly.


    Creating msgs
"Installing time zone data"
        set TCL_LIBRARY="../library"
        .\Release\tclsh85.exe "../tools/installData.tc
l"  "../library/tzdata" "C:\Program 
Files\Tcl\lib\tcl8.5/tzdata"
application-specific initialization failed: Can't 
find a usable init.tcl in the
following directories:
    D:/src_tcl/win/\../library\ 
D:/src_tcl/win/lib/tcl8.5 {C:\Program 
Files\Tcl\lib\tcl8.5}

This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed 
properly.


Although there are reported errors, Tcl *does* still 
install properly. The errors are due to the quotes 
around "../library" and is fixed by the following 
patch...
