It seems like I have followed all the instructions to get Tk working on my mac powerbook and it still fails. I have all the mac patches, the development kit installed, recompiled perl 5.8.4, have Xdarwin installed and I added the X libs to my path, but Tk fails to compile on versions 24 and 27. HELP! The output is abreviated.

Here is the output for 24...
