This is a new, unexpected one for me; we build routinely on Solaris 10
x86_64 using Sun Studio 12 compilers. I just worked with another
site to find and fix a bug in the ADDE TEXT serving (wtxgserv) on
this platform, and routinely work with CU/CIRES on their Solaris
10 x86_64 installation of McIDAS, and neither site had any problems
with the Tcl/Tk portion of the build.

Can you send me the contents of your shell configuration file (e.g., .cshrc
for C Shell, etc.)?  I want to verify that you are reading the
~mcidas/admin/mcidas_env.(sh|csh) configuration file to set the
environment variables needed to perform a McIDAS build successfully.

Cheers,

Tom
