Subject: How to create a standalone executable using ECL

ECL is not like other Lisp interpreters. It cannot dump images. There
is a specific build process that must be created in Maxima's
configure.sh script. Hence the reason I am asking on this list. The
ECL developers know very little about Maxima's build process. It looks
like I will have to somehow reverse engineer configure.sh by hand -
it's a shame no one knows who wrote the ECL specific parts in Maxima's
configure.sh or how they work.
