Nope. For what it's worth, it seems if I add any type of manifest to the 
file, it mucks up file extractions.

If I use the files from the tclkit goolecode site (eg, 
tclkitsh-8.5.9-win32.upx.exe<https://code.google.com/p/tclkit/downloads/detail?name=tclkitsh-8.5.9-win32.upx.exe&can=2&q=>), 
file copies are correct. These exe's have no manifest, and appear to have 
been built without need of one.

I've been trying to compile with VC8, which needs a manifest, or it 
complains it can't find the runtimes. With the manifest, it breaks the copy 
datestamps. I can't (I don't think) compile without a manfest, since the 
exe just won't run.

I've been trying to compile in VC6, for comparison--to see if adding the 
manifest changes things--but I'm not having luck getting it to compile at 
all.

Right now, I've stared at this too long, so I'm putting it down while I can 
still form a sentence. I will pick it up later, or look into alternate 
forms of extraction.

If anybody has any thoughts, I would appreciate hearing them. If they are 
simple enough for me to follow, I will attempt them =]
