Well, the good news is that the problems don't affect my game, so porting it over was pretty easy.
The bad news is that my cross compiled version of ECL for ARM crashes when I run it on the device. And I don't really know why. The other strange thing is that I'm having trouble building executables using ECL (my packages vanish mysteriously), and the byte-compiled code is too slow to run without lag. I've asked the ECL mailing list about my two issues above; I still haven't uncovered anything particularly revealing about the failing SDL examples. Thanks.
