Many thanks for the help, it all built and installed without 
further problems (bundle-maxima-x11).  xmaxima appears to 
work fine, but wxmaxima cannot start/connect to the server 
no matter what I've tried to reconfigure.  It looks OK apart 
from that, but obviously I can't test it very much in its 
serverless state. I can't get any more useful debug messages 
out of it either.  The console gave me five copies of

31/07/2012 20:24:48 
[0x0-0x9b89b8].net.sf.wxMaxima[63477]   (wxmaxima:63477): 
Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to find default local directory 
monitor type

but I don't think that's relevant.  Comparing console output 
between wxmaxima and xmaxima, I don't think wxmaxima even 
tries to start/connect to a server, despite what it claims 
in its error dialog.  For xmaxima I get

31/07/2012 20:45:36     Firewall[60]    wish8.5 is listening 
from 0.0.0.0:4008 proto=6

and "top" also shows an instance of sbcl, but there is 
clearly nothing similar running for wxmaxima.

cheers,
