certainly, ecl I used is functional, e.g. it is able to build Maxima,
as a part of Sage installation.

But I guess it has nothing to do with Sage; to test this, I just
grabbed the current CVS version of ECL, built it, and installed in
/usr/local.

Still, this ecl cannot build fricas.
Here is what I do.
(the error is a bit different, probably because I don't start with a
pristine dir, but just run 'make distclean")
