[Ecls-list] cannot build fricas using ecl

[Dima Pasechnik]

PS. I can build fricas on the same system using sbcl, so it's really
something to do with ecl-11.1.1.

(On the same system, installing ecl (11.1.1-4) from the Debian package
repo gives me a broken compiler:
$ ecl
ecl: symbol lookup error: ecl: undefined symbol: ecl_process_env)
