There is no difference AFAIK in how HEAD and 0.40.2-extended uses Tcl/ 
Tk.  IIRC, HEAD is using lipo manually to assemble universal/fat  
binaries.  The proper way to do that is by specifying -arch flags to  
gcc, then gcc will call lipo for you.

That could be the first thing you tackle, cleaning up the universal  
binary compilation in HEAD.  So far, I just added --disable-fat to ./ 
configure to turn off that stuff and just build on the native  
architecture.

Terrorism is not an enemy.  It cannot be defeated.  It's a tactic.   
It's about as sensible to say we declare war on night attacks and  
expect we're going to win that war.  We're not going to win the war  
on terrorism.        - retired U.S. Army general, William Odom
