There's no inherent reason why an Aqua-based gis.m can't use d.mon.

Oh, I have no objection to extending configure to use a Tcl/Tk
framework, if such a thing were ever to come into existence.

It's the half-arsed sort-of-but-not-really-a-framework package that I
don't feel like supporting.

IOW, either -F/-framework or -I/-L/-l, but not some mixed-up
combination of the two.
