this, the spkg can grow from under 2.5 megabytes to almost 7

* Build with --enable-unicode=no, and hence it is safe to:
- - Delete the contents of the src/contrib/encodings directory
- - Delete the contents of the src/contrib/unicode directory
+ - Remove the directory src/contrib/encodings/

(Building with --enable-unicode=yes, the default in the latest ecl
source, leads to problems with some strings in the Sage-maxima-ecl
interface.)

remove some source files (as described above in "Special
Update/Build Instructions"), echo error messages to stderr, etc.

I would also like to register a complaint that while in the src directory,
running `./configure --help` actually creates a directory (`build`) and
then prints the message "Configuration complete. To build ECL, issue make
in this directory." I wouldn't expect `./configure --help` to actually do
anything beyond print a message.
