Hi, I think that wxmaxima (0.6.5-1) is buggy. I've got no problems testing those examples with maxima (5.9.3-1.1), but if I try 'factor (10!)' with wxmaxima the output of gdb is an endless number of lines like these: [New Thread 1082132832 (LWP 27081)] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27082)] [Thread 1082132832 (LWP 27081) exited] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27082) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27100)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27100) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27101)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27101) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27102)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27102) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27103)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27103) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27104)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27104) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27105)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27105) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27106)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27106) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27107)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27107) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27108)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27108) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27109)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27109) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27110)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27110) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27111)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27111) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27112)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27112) exited] [New Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27113)] [Thread 1090525536 (LWP 27113) exited] ...
