What you specify during the bootstrap is the C compiler
to be used to compile the C files in the bootstrap directory.
Not the C compiler to be used as back-end C compiler associated
with the chosen Eiffel compiler.

GOBO_CC is used to tell gec which C compiler to be used as
back-end C compiler. See:

Now I wonder why you set GOBO_CC to 'ise'. What did you try
to do when doing that?
