Hi Arjen:

Thanks for that additional information.  It confirms my analysis of
the issue and the fix I came up with for the

-DPLD_tk=OFF -DPLD_tkwin=OFF

case (which is the case you reported the other day because
-DENABLE_tk=OFF automatically forces -DPLD_tk=OFF and -DPLD_tkwin=OFF).

Once you get a chance to permanently fix your X configuration, rename
/usr/local so that no longer interferes with your Cygwin PLplot
builds, install all relevant Tcl/Tk/Itcl/Itk/Iwidgets Cygwin packages,
and drop the -DENABLE_itk=OFF option, then you should be good to go
for your next comprehensive test with --do_test_interactive no.

And once everything is perfect for that case, you should attempt to
finish up this Cygwin testing effort by running the script again
without that --do_test_interactive no option (although that last test
will require some babysitting from you to click all the GUI's to get
through all the interactive tests.)
