You need to build the entire host-side tree and not just ecosconfig,
since the latter relies on various libraries such as libcdl.a. You
should be using the configure script that is in the same directory as
the README file. That will take care of all the required
subdirectories in the appropriate order.

With appropriate care it is possible to use the lower-level configure
scripts, but those are really intended for use only by the
maintainers. The top-level configure script is for general use.
