Comment (by leif):

 Hmmm, at least using the following `Makefile` works as expected (no
 orphans, nor Maxima eating up all memory):

 {{{
 #!make
 maxima:
         /path/to/sage --maxima --very-quiet -r
 "rk(-x*(y-2)*y,y,1,[x,0,1,0.500000000000000]);"
 }}}

 So apparently ''the pexpect interface'' (when run from `make`, but not in
 an interactive Sage session) causes Maxima to do something weird
 afterwards...
