Sure, both worked. I also understand now, that ecos and host are 
modulenames. May be I was misled by the layout as shown on the web 
interface of ecos-cvs. There it looks as if host is simply part of the 
ecos tree. See

This seems ok. I get:
rwb@w500 /opt
$ echo $ECOS_REPOSITORY
/cygdrive/c/cygwin/opt/ecos

Ok, I am going to test it also with tcl8.4/tk8.4 instead of tcl8.5/tk8.5

That's what I did - except that my new directory is named host and is in 
opt (I follow method 2 outlined in README.host).
I then started the configure from within opt/host and got all these 
errors at line 2990.

I knew it would not be easy, but hell, I need a working executable of 
configtool. Even the most recent snapshot of configtool of 24-Apr-2012 
does not work on my Windows 7 /cygwin PC.
