This is my bad. Branch you want is "mobile" not "develop". I plan to
merge it soon.

This is another typo in README.og (already fixed in repository)

after building host compiler you have to:

      export ECL_TO_RUN=`pwd`/android/ecl-32/bin/ecl
      rm -r build

      ./configure --host=arm-linux-androideabi \
                  --prefix=`pwd`/ecl-android \
                  --with-cross-config=`pwd`/src/util/android.cross_config \
                  --disable-soname

where `pwd`/android-ecl-32/bin/ecl is path to your host ECL.

OK, no problem with that. Keep in mind though that it has to be 32 bit
build with disabled longdouble. It will be changed when
cross-compilation framework work is done, but for now you'll probably
have to build your local host compiler.
