This is the error -- not sure why cross_config is malformed. I tried a 
rebuild just to verify (on a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard (10.6.2), 
and it built correctly. You can look at the build output (from the link 
below) to see if there's anything that stands out:

I've also attached a working `ecl-9.8.4/build/cross_config' file from 
the build for reference. Hope that helps.
