[Xotcl] compilation problem

[Gustaf Neumann]

Bernd,

to be sure, i just built xotcl 1.4.0 against 8.4.13, and it worked 
without a glitch.
Can it be that configure picks up a wrong version of tcl? The function 
TclIncrVar2
has its prototype in tclIntDecls.h, which does not seem to be used in 
your case
(... implicit declaration ...)

To be sure, use the switches like in:

    http://www.openacs.org/xowiki/pages/en/xotcl-core#install

if this does not help, what is your build environment (OS and cc)?
