I have been using the second one in the past, when I had a Linux box
available. QEMU was running fine with ARM but, again, I had to use
--with-fpe=no at configuration time to disable floating point
exceptions, because the kernel library for them was buggy.

This step is trying to build the shared library with all of ECL in it.
However I see that this command is missing a flag: -shared, that
indicates that the output is a DLL and not a program. This flag is
automatically detected by the configuration process, that is unless
the host detection step (config.guess and config.sub) fails to
identify your system.
