 Replying to [comment:30 kcrisman]:
 > And again noise... the p2 is also here, don't know how I didn't realize
 that.  Anyway, there is an {{{ecl.dll}}} in both `sage/local/bin/` and
 `sage/local/lib/`, but not all the .a files in `libs/ecl/` are thus.
 Since I know nothing about .a files, I don't know whether that would be a
 problem, though.

 a .a file is typically a static object library, i.e. something one links
 against. It shouldn't be needed at the runtime, typically
 (unless you want to rebuild things on the fly).
 You can check the type of the file by using Cygwin's "file" command.
 (i.e. somethign like
 {{{
      $ file output.pdf
     output.pdf: PDF document, version 1.4
 }}}
