I have managed to set up PearPC + Darwin 7.0.1 on my laptop. It is not 
full Mac OSX, only the kernel and libraries are equivalent to 10.3, but 
since ECL uses no graphics or fancy stuff, it should provide enough 
insight on what is going on. At least, the beast is compiling right now.

The garbage collector seems to be reclaiming the library you have just 
loaded. Which is bad. But if it is a garbage collector problem it can 
always be solved by resuscitating ECL's old one and using it under MacOSX.
