Andre, doing this, you are building the plugin for gdal 1.11 with old gdal
1.10 code, which is not optimal as there were quite a few changes to the
ECW/JP2ECW drivers between 1.10 and 1.11.   And it still does not solve the
problem of not being able to use the drivers in python (in fact python
segfaults immediately for me when trying to import gdal). 

What I do is very similar, but use the makefile from libgdal-ecw and
manually build (using the same commands as per `gdal-ecw-build`) against the
gdal 1.11 tree.
