I haven't looked into this fully, but I note that my older Sparc
Classic, running under Gentoo, has no problems building ecl 0.9h with

CFLAGS="-mcpu=v8 -O2 -pipe" and

src_compile() {
        local myconf="--with-system-gmp
                --enable-boehm=included
                --with-tcp
                --with-ffi
                --with-clos-streams
                --with-cmuformat
                --with-asdf
                `use_with c++ cxx`
                `use_with X x`
                `use_with X clx`"
        einfo "Configuring with: $myconf"
        econf ${myconf} || die

It may be that gmp is cut back via

src_compile() {
        filter-flags -ffast-math

        # FreeBSD libc already have bsdmp
        econf \
                --localstatedir=/var/state/gmp \
                --disable-mpfr \
                $(use_enable !nocxx cxx) \
                $(use_enable !elibc_FreeBSD mpbsd) \
                || die "configure failed"
        emake || die "emake failed"
