ecb instead of ec

Hi,

Is there any reason why 'geant' uses ISE's 'ec' and not 'ecb' for  
compilation? 'ecb' seems is much lighter and significantly faster to  
compile code.

The reason is that geant was implemented well before ecb was created.
This can be changed of course. But to have faster compilation I suggest
using gec ;-)

I would love(!) to switch to GEC at any time, IF I the final details of  
GEC could be implemented (e.g. contract checking, multi-threading,  
internal). It is a pity that we have a very fast compiler that is 90%  
ready for production.

(This is just to motivate you! Keep up the good work :-) )
