Summary: const compiler warning (as error) in tclCompile.c

Initial Comment:

The threaded debug build on Windows XP does not compile (using MSVC9):

tcl\win\..\generic\tclCompile.c(3377) : error C2220: warning treated as error - no 'object' file generated
tcl\win\..\generic\tclCompile.c(3377) : warning C4090: 'function' : different 'const' qualifiers

The code in question:

int
TclPrintInstruction(
    ByteCode *codePtr,       /* Bytecode containing the instruction. */
    const unsigned char *pc) /* Points to first byte of instruction. */
{
  <snip>
  numBytes = FormatInstruction(codePtr, pc, bufferObj); /* <-- const mismatch for pc argument */
  <snip>
}
