Apparently (or supposedly, see below) it was fixed upstream some time,
and there was just no release in a long time:

http://sourceforge.net/p/ecls/bugs/98/

User "jackdaniel" is apparently the new maintainer, and the project will
be moving to Gitorious soon:

http://sourceforge.net/p/ecls/news/2015/02/ecl-15221-released-new-maintainer-found/

That being said, your following inquiry tempted me to run the build
process again to get the exact output, and I faced what I describe in
the second additional message in this bug report:

http://sourceforge.net/p/ecls/bugs/300/

Sadly, as now mentioned in the above bug report, the whole system fails
to start with a "protocol not supported" error.


I guess the best way to go is to keep the test suite disabled for now,
but add additional comments pointing to the above bug report as well as
<http://sourceforge.net/p/ecls/bugs/299/> so someone updating the
package will know what changes to look forward to.  WDYT?
