 Replying to [comment:86 jpflori]:

 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.

 #13324 is partially duplicating #13364. The segfault one sees with Maxima
 is due to an infinite recursion in some Maxima code, as
 is acknowledged on [https://sourceforge.net/p/maxima/bugs/2520/ maxima bug
 tracker, bug 2520]. I am not sure ECL can be blamed for crashing on this.
