  Have you actually used it the way it was meant to be
used? You have to learn the _ecos_ way of doing
things, there is no shortcuts (unless you pay someone
[not me] to do the work) !.

  What is so unclean about eCos? eCos is more than a
collection of .cxx files held together by makefiles.
It is a collection of reconfigurable reusable
components and this is where the cdl (component
definition language) comes in. Take a look at his link
http://www.embedded.com/story/OEG20011220S0059
  its few years old but it is also nice and _short_.

  You add and remove files by adding the filename to
the a cdl file. That is not harder than editing a
makefile.

  There is no such thing as "pure" mips. Why don't you
 just give us more details about your board. It is
much more productive than making negative inaccurate
comments about eCos. This is how it normally works
around here. You ask a question, give the relevant
details and hope that someone can help.
