12985,Possible future issues with ECL build with unicode enabled,pcpa,was,"ecl 12.2.1 has unicode support enabled by default, what creates two string types, t_base_string and t_string. The problem is that sage does not properly handle those, as described in https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3526370&group_id=30035&atid=398053 see also https://github.com/cschwan/sage-on-gentoo/issues/2

AFAIK it can be built with unicode disabled, just that it will fail make check at least.
