I've been using ECL to compile SBCL on aarch64, but I can't do it without patching the sources. There is a warning triggered during the build (only on aarch64) with a format string that contains:
~<~%~9T~:;~/sb-impl:print-type/:~>
ECL chokes on this due to the ~T in the ~:; clause. Why is that not allowed? It seems like a reasonable thing to do at first glance.

We've fixed issues with bootstrapping sbcl from ecl /after/ the 16.1.3 release (a new version will be released soon); for details please see:
https://gitlab.com/embeddable-common-lisp/ecl/issues/540 (~T problem) https://gitlab.com/embeddable-common-lisp/ecl/issues/468 (other issues)
Please try building ECL from a develop branch and then bootstrap SBCL from this build.
Best regards, Daniel
