Well something definitely has changed. At one time maxima-5.26.0 and ecls-12.2.1
could co-exist here as:

But now I'm unable to rebuild maxima-5.26.0, even with ecls-12.7.1 installed.
The build just hangs with

;;; Loading
"/var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/maxima-5.26.0/work/maxima-5.26.0/src/binary-ecl/init-cl.fas"
 ;
- Providing system maxima

If I remove the sbcl useflag from maxima then it builds, even with
ecls-12.2.1. I now have

But I'm not sure whether this will cure your particular Sage failure.
