Ok, I started a local Cuirass, I reproduced the evaluation failure, and
I think I found the problem: Cuirass was choking on the definition of
the ecl-slynk package. I fixed it and know the evaluation has
been 'In progress...' for 15 minutes.
Then, if the evaluation completes successfully, and if there are no
objections, I'll push the updated staging branch.
