Thanks again for your effort and your fix.

I do not understand why ECL would need XCVB to build itself? Right now it is
using just one makefile to build the C library and one compilation file that
builds all modules sequentially -- the bootstrap order is so delicate that
separate files can almost never be compiled individually.
