But you do not need to replace anything. Just download it, build it
and point ECL to the directories where you installed it. It should
just work if this new version supports OSX/intel

ECL uses the same API as most other lisps and wich has been borrowed
from the lisp machines multiprocessing capabilities. There is a page
contributed by Julian Stecklina which documents it
