Comment (by leif):

 Replying to [comment:82 jpflori]:
 > I guess the string produced by Maxima and the way it is treated before
 printing changed, so the way we do it in maxima_lib at the lisp level is
 not uptodate anymore?

 Ahem, yes, presumably... ;-)  [AFAICS the original `retrieve` function
 hasn't changed.]

 I was wondering whether some non-printable character (like ASCII BEL) gets
 mapped to a literal `?`, but at least the position is strange, and e.g.
 "Is  a  positve, negative, or zero?" (note the [IMHO inconsistent] extra
 spaces) in contrast is just as before (at least on the Python level, i.e.,
 the string passed with the exception, before we strip "ECL says: Maxima
 asks: ").
