Comment (by pcpa):

 Replying to [comment:24 kcrisman]:

 > The current packages at #13324  have {{{ --enable-unicode=no }}}

   The fedora package has an explicit `--enable-unicode`. The fact that ecl
 was failing `make check` if using `--disable-unicode` was an ecl bug.

 > Would that be an acceptable resolution to this ticket, or should we re-
 enable it with this fix eventually?  (Currently I'd say #13324  is higher-
 priority so that we might actually have a chance at getting Cygwin up to
 speed...)

 The patch must work with ecl compiled with or without unicode (the patch
 reason is to not break sagemath if ecl was built with unicode enabled),
 but the patch was causing a link failure if using an ecl older than 12.2.
