New description:
On my 1.7.16 installation of Cygwin, the ecl spkg does not build because
it defines unconditionaly _WINSOCKAPI_ in h/ecl-cmp.h which then prevents
the definition of fd_set in /usr/include/sys/types.h.
I guess this is harmless on Linux, intended on Windows, but on Cygwin this
breaks the build of ECL.
The proposed spkg patches h/ecl-cmp.h so that _WINSOCKAPI_ is not defined
on CYGWIN.
This has been merged upstream and is in 12.12.1:
https://sourceforge.net/p/ecls/ecl/ci/07c4ab7db83eda2eed7fa4a5ddeec2e28c7eb58b/
Moreover comes patches from upstream to get correct signal handling and is
in 12.12.1:
*
http://sourceforge.net/p/ecls/ecl/ci/c4a538dd278407f91f6105ebbeadf1b371c1124f/
*
http://sourceforge.net/p/ecls/ecl/ci/15033d5a8ad7297e5f76e2e70446b0eea2f2d2a7/
*
http://sourceforge.net/p/ecls/ecl/ci/ec1fe8781a5f137284cc6c0d0cfa6b0cc9b9b291/
We build ECL single threaded to get hopefully more correct signal handling
in library mode and avoid problems with the pexpect interface.
And a later patch to avoid infinite loops while compiling lisp to C:
http://sourceforge.net/p/ecls/ecl/ci/13459a98f0c0c58ccc4e9241c3bf0625e39f2383/
Older patches which are now upstream have been removed.
Be sure to use Sage 5.6.beta2 or higher, so that the Maxima spkg is ready
for this.

http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/jpflori/ecl-12.12.1.p0.spkg
Apply:
* [attachment:trac_13324.patch] (Trivial doctest patch fixing a changed
error message.)

Comment:
Just updating things slightly since the needed Maxima changes are in
5.6.beta2. Note that #13364 (Maxima upgrade) is now ready as well.
