Previous version of eclib did not use Flint.  The current one
(eclib-20140128) does, and it requires Flint version at least 2.3.  If
you configure mwrank without specifying --with-flint=... then it will
test for the Flint symbols it uses which are mostly of the form
_nmod_mat_rref.  But if you specify --with=flint= *as we do in the
spkg-install script for Sage* then that check is not carried out.

It follows that if Sage was using a Flint version <2.3 then building
Sage would fail.

Of course, this should not be the reason for your problem since Sage
does now use Flint 2.3, and possibly 2.4.  I have *not* tested eclib
against Flint 2.4 and perhaps I should!  Though 2.4.3 still has the
nmod_mat module, and eclib builds on most machines.
