Actually, just before the release I have fixed asdf-ecl so that this
works. The reason is that formerly your executable would _always_ end up
at the toplevel. Now it just executes the files from the system
definition and quits.

I have also added some trivial examples to ecls/src/examples/asdf (See
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/ecls/ecls/examples/asdf in a
couple of hours), which show how simple it is to build a standalone
application thanks to Michael's code.
