Compiling is broken here when using --enable-external-ell with iwd git
master no matter if I put ell source along iwd as described in README
but succeeds with --disable-external-ell.

The README ist somewhat misleading here. When building from git and
placing ell into toplevel dir it's failing. A cp ell/ell into iwd/ is
required when building from git.
