Comment (by dimpase):

 Replying to [comment:47 jpflori]:
 > Running nm on both libraries from this spkg and the previous one shows
 the same symbols exactly, but with a different address base.

 the culprit is the new libecl.dll.a, which gets picked up by the linker
 first, what which is not what is needed (as this is for other purposes).
 And this makes perfect sense, that's exactly what happens according to the
 Redhat docs cited above.

 I have overcome this by moving libecl.dll.a out of SAGELOCAL/lib, and
 creating there a symbolic link named cygecl.dll
 to ../bin/cygecl.dll

 Hopefully will get Sage that can at least start up some time soon...
