Greetings! Thank you so much!
I've located the issue -- denormalized floats on alpha. Right now, GCL uses the -mieee gcc switch. How much worse is the -mieee-with-inexact? I hesitate to use this if it slows everything down, especially since it does not appear that maxima intends to use these numbers anyway. This having been said, a generic lisp system should support least-positive-double-float, et. al. Do you have an opinion?
