Marius Gerbershagen f0ef267ce7 update compilation instructions for android
With recent versions of the android NDK, there is no need to create a
separate toolchain anymore. Moreover, the LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS are
obsolete. Also, we can't call the C compiler with a `-Dandroid`
argument as we used to since that conflicts with uses of the `android`
identifier within the header files of the android C standard library.
Therefore, we change from `thehost=android` to `thehost=ANDROID` in
uppercase. Finally, make the test script run more reliably by starting
an adb server before we change TMPDIR.

ECL stands for Embeddable Common-Lisp. The ECL project aims to produce an implementation of the Common-Lisp language which complies to the ANSI X3J13 definition of the language.

The term embeddable refers to the fact that ECL includes a Lisp to C compiler, which produces libraries (static or dynamic) that can be called from C programs. Furthermore, ECL can produce standalone executables from Lisp code and can itself be linked to your programs as a shared library. It also features an interpreter for situations when a C compiler isn't available.

ECL supports the operating systems Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly BSD, OpenBSD, Solaris (at least v. 9), Microsoft Windows (MSVC, MinGW and Cygwin) and OSX, running on top of the Intel, Sparc, Alpha, ARM and PowerPC processors. Porting to other architectures should be rather easy.
