Comment (by jpflori):
I think that #13324 still needs_review and potential firther changes (no
feedback from upstream yet on the uncaught segfault issue).
Closing #13324 would be similar to what I wanted to do for #12115 and
#13137 except for the fact that #12115 was kind of trivial and got merged
into #13137, whereas here we would merge a big (almost functional?) ticket
into a simpler (but potentially more controversial) one.
Furthermore, as this one is only needed on Cygwin, I'm even more inclined
to think it might be better to wait for #13324 to be properly merged, and
then go with this one.
If you really want to use it, just download it and do so.
And I still think the change to Maxima spkg-install script should be done
in an independent (and quite trivial) ticket called something like "let
Maxima spkg properly install with different version of ECL", it would be
merged really quicly, and then rebase #13364 to update Maxima on top of
that new ticket.
With this approach people could just drop in different versions of ECl and
ply with them.
Generally I feel that keeping issues, or even "independent" changes, into
separated tickets is a good idea.
