It is odd, but it is so in OS X. Maybe a hint in the README would suffice.

BTW, answering Xiaojun's question, I am using a more recent version of SBCL, 1.0.45, shipped with Fink for 64bits. I would like to know what happens with the ECL build and why it does not work. Is it possible to set up a similar handler somewhere in the boot scripts forcing FriCAS to enter the lisp debugger or something like that? > > I believe it should be pretty easy to bundle Fricas and ECL in a DMG > bundle > > for easy distribution in OS X.
