I guess so. Maybe a --ld-flags="..." option for configure?

I'm using a version built from cvs about a week ago.
ECL is changing a lot these days, so I'm sure that your version and
mine are different, although I don't know if the differences have
anything to do with the observed behavior w/ Maxima.
By the way I've committed another change to the build stuff:
cut out :finally-do from maxima.system (to avoid error when make
attempts to update ecl-depends.mk) and call BUILD-MAXIMA-LIB
from the ECL command line for the binary-ecl/maxima target in
src/Makefile.am. This is also on the 5.17 branch.
