Hi,

just wanted to report two small problems with new ECL 15.2.21 on Windows,
using the MSVC (2008/2010) compilers:

(1) File "ecl/src/c/file.d" needs this patch in order to compile:

        if (Null(large_disp)) {
                disp = 0;
                mode = SEEK_END;


(2) Starting up ECL in a Windows console gives this error; as you can
see, it's simply a problem with character encoding of the name of the
new maintainer:
