[Ecls-list] how to prevent ECL entering debugger when C compiler fails?

[Juan Jose Garcia-Ripoll]

I am afraid this is due to ASDF: it overrides your handlers by inserting
one that breaks when the compiler signals some error or some warning. I
find it very annoying because it makes debugging compiler errors very very
hard.
