New description:

 In some debian installs (and derivatives such as ubuntu) the etags program
 is actually to ctags from exuberant-ctags. This is incompatible with what
 ecl expect. the symptoms are as follow:
 {{{
 echo > TAGS
 if test "xetags" != "x"; then \
         srcfiles=`find
 /scratch/scratch/schilly/sage/sage-4.6.2/spkg/build/ecl-11.1.1/src/src/c
 /scratch/scratch/schilly/sage/sage-4.6.2/spkg/build/ecl-11.1.1/src/src/h
 -name '*.[chd]'` && \
         etags --language=c    -o TAGS $srcfiles && \
         etags --language=none -o TAGS --append \
               --regex='/@\([-:*a-zA-z]+\)/\1/' \
               --regex='/@(defun \([-:*a-zA-z]+\)/\1/' \
               $srcfiles; \
         fi
 etags: relocation error: /usr/lib/libldap_r-2.4.so.2: symbol
 }}}
 or

 There is no way to disable the building of TAGS in the configuration and
 detecting that you have an etags program from emacs is complicated. See
 the following bug reports:

Comment:

 Here is the new spkg. Basically I touch build/TAGS before make is called
 so that TAGS is never built. Bypassing any problem with a broken etags or
 ctags passing for etags.
 I will attach a patch for the reviewer with all the changes to the spkg.
