There has been no chance to the ecosconfig/libcdl code in this area
for a very long time. There are two types of savefile: a full savefile
contains all the comments and any other information that would be
useful for hand-editing the data; a minimal savefile only contains the
information needed to recreate the configuration. Full savefiles are
generated by default, minimal savefiles are only generated when you do
e.g. an ecosconfig export.

Within the libcdl implementation, the important function is

  void CdlConfigurationBody::save(std::string, bool = false);

ecosconfig invokes this via

  config->save(savefile);

(except in the implementation of the export command). Unless something
in libcdl or ecosconfig is getting miscompiled, e.g. the wrong value
is being used for the default argument, I do not see how you can get
the behaviour you describe.
