I have made a new ticket at http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/10187
to update ecl and maxima simultaneously, as they depend on each other.
Updated spgks are there. Doctests for the now-smarter maxima still
need to be sorted out.

Fedora 14 also disallows executable stack libraries by default now,
which breaks mpir. The necessary changes are pretty minimal since mpir
does not need an executable stack. Ticket with updated mpir spgk is
here: http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/10188
