I run the configuration program with the flags you gave me, and yes, there was 
a problem: the file build/lsp/config.lsp would not get properly built 
(sometimes) due to a line defining VPATH in the Makefile. Since config.lsp is 
the file that sets the equivalence between the "SYS:" logical hostname and 
the installation directory, at run time, ECL tried to access its system 
directory and failed.

I have fixed src/configure* and src/Makefile.in. The program now builds on 
FreeBSD with the flag --with-clos-streams, as you already confirmed (I am
a bit amazed that CVS was so fast updated)
