'Illegal instruction' usually means the binary cannot be understood by
the processor. Which processor are you using ?

The gcc  command line  generated by ECL  did not  contain cpu-specific
options, so  I assumed the binary  would be safe on  any x86 processor
(even if  optimizations were  turned on). That  may not have  been the
case :-\
