Summary: cvs head does not build today - vs tcl 8.5

Initial Comment:
I downloaded the cvs head from activestate's ftp site.
It currently doesn't build - here are some errors and warnings:

Fixed for Expect 5.44.1.4, committed to the head. Needed tclInt.h instead
of tcl.h in exp_inter.c

To fix this specific problem, there was a bug listed back in January 2007
(1634110) with the fix for this - it requires a change in a header include
in exp_inter.c

sorry - solaris sparc, sun c compiler, compiled against today's cvs head
tars of tcl and tk from the same ftp site and the following config flags.
'--enable-shared' '--enable-symbols' '--enable-stubs' '--enable-64bit'
'--enable-threads'

Although not stated I can infer that you compiled Expect against 8.5 Head,
right ?

andreask@gila:~/lsf> grep -rin TCL_REG_BOSONLY tcl-8.[45]
tcl-8.4/generic/tcl.h:575:#define TCL_REG_BOSONLY               002000  /*
prepend \A to pattern so it only
tcl-8.5/generic/tclInt.h:1107:#define TCL_REG_BOSONLY         002000  /*
prepend \A to pattern so it only
tcl-8.5/ChangeLog:1851: * generic/tcl.h:        Moved TCL_REG_BOSONLY
#define from tcl.h to
tcl-8.5/changes:6870:2006-11-22 (feature change) Moved TCL_REG_BOSONLY
from tcl.h to tclInt.h

The key difference between 8.4/8.5 is that in 8.5 this define moved to an
internal header.

This is something which happened Nov 22 2006, and means that Expect is not
compiling against the CVS Head since that time.
