This is not the homepage, it is the manual. It sometimes falls out of
date. The list of supported and tested platforms is here:
http://ecls.sourceforge.net/logs.html and it is always updated on
every announcement of ECL.

It is the same problem. Loading of compiled files goes through some
functions (dlopen) while opening of files goes through other functions
(open, fopen, fread, etc). So both are completely different things.
