Others have apparently run into this and haven't been able to
find an answer either.

This seems to be a known problem:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.ecos.general/17834/focus=17837

According to the above thread, the bug in command-line parsing
that is rejecting the version specifier has been fixed. But,
I'd still like to know how ecosconfig decides what version it's
going to build by default.  I've searched the Users Guide, the
Reference Guide, and the Component Writers Guide, and didn't
find any documentation on ecosconfig other than a few examples.
