[Ecls-list] Building ECL fails: Debugger received error of type: UNBOUND-VARIABLE, The variable *MODULE-SYMBOLS* is unbound.

[Dietrich Bollmann]

Hi,

I would like to compile ECL on Windows 7 running on my MacBookPro using the
Visual Studio Command Prompt (2010) but no ecl.exe is built.

The source code is from the git repository.

Just before giving up, the following error message is printed:

> Debugger received error of type: UNBOUND-VARIABLE
The variable *MODULE-SYMBOLS* is unbound.

Some more context of the output produced by nmake is appended to this email.

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks, Dietrich
