OK does ${S}/build/bin/ecl exist? It is unlikely to be a parrallel make
issue. I haven't seen it before myself but Andrey comment about the lisp
stack may apply here. If bin/ecl isn't found anywhere it may have
somehow failed to build at an earlier stage.....

I think it is worthy of bugzilla even if it is just for Andrey to put
pointer on what to do with the lisp overlay.
