Summary: trouble running nmake

Initial Comment:
I'm having some trouble building Tcl 8.4.12 with 
Visual C++ (using nmake) on a Win 98 OS.  The general 
problem seems to be that various pieces of code can't 
find files unless they are in the same subdirectory. 
For example I had to copy mspdb60.dll from Microsoft 
Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\bin into the Microsoft 
Visual Studio\VC98\bin subdirectory where cl.exe is.

Below is the end of a litany of errors I get when I 
try to run "c:\tcl_src\win\>nmake -f makefile.vc 
release". 

Any advice on what the problem might be would be 
greatly appreciated.  Thanks, Colleen
