Hmmm, I don't remember this conversation :p
Do you have a link?

Those ecl- packages come for free, so it's cool to have them for users
using ECL.  Admittedly, ECL is way less popular than SBCL, plus the cl-
packages can always be used as a fallback.
So no strong opinion on my end.

Either way, I guess this patch is ready to merge then.  ECL packages can
always be tweaked later if need be.
