If you do not use --without-dffi, then you get the previous messages which are due to problems with the inline assembly /var/tmp//cclaaOtH.s: Assembler messages: /var/tmp//cclaaOtH.s:49: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `mov' /var/tmp//cclaaOtH.s:51: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `mov' /var/tmp//cclaaOtH.s:140: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `mov' This is not at all what you showed in the ticket. In the ticket you used --without-dffi and thus the DFFI was not linked in and ECL built, but then Maxim afailed to link ld.so.1: ecl: fatal: relocation error: R_AMD64_PC32: file /export/home/drkirkby/sage-4.4.2/local/lib//libecl.so: symbol main: value 0x22800097de04 does not fit The only thing I can think of is that Maxima is being compiled with some other flags that are not the same used to build ECL. For instance if some object model option (-fPIC?) disappears when compiling files vs. when building ECL. That should not happen, but I can not see it from your ticket.
