[BioC] Could you help me

The problem is that the specification of cl currently differs between SAM
and EBAM. When performing a SAM analysis you can specify cl in the way that
you have specified it. In an EBAM analysis, this way of specification is
currently not implemented. I hope that I can implement this soon. This
should be available latest in the next Bioconductor release.
