You're right - I never even tried this with ConfigTool setups (since I 
almost exclusively use 'ecosconfig').

Anyway, it's really quite easy to work with.

Assume that you've run ConfigTool and saved your config in /work/test.  
Now that directory looks like this:
  work/
    test/
      machine.ecc
      machine_build/
      machine_install/

Now, to build the standard examples in that environment, do this:
  % cd /work/test/machine_build
  % ln -s /work/test/machine_install install

Now, in your directory (we'll assume the standard examples) that you 
want to run 'build_Makefile'
   work/
     test/
       examples/

  % cd /work/test/examples
  % SRCS=hello.c DST=hello ./build_Makefile /work/test/machine_build
  % make

Works like a charm :-)
