> What is the status of this ticket? I can't help on the Cygwin side for
a while yet but am happy to do any sage.math or recent Mac testing. Is it
"needs work" on the uncaught error? And is there a link to the upstream
report? Just trying to gauge the status, thanks.
[http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg02367.html
here] you can see an easy way to reproduce this using only ECL and the
latest Maxima. There was no reaction from upstream. Although the ECL
maintainer [http://www.mail-archive.com/ecls-
[email protected]/msg02391.html says] he's not doing a lot on ECL
now. Probably one has to file a proper detailed bug report via an
appropriate SF bug tracker.
However, I am not really sure ECL must fix this. Indeed, this is caused by
a bug in maxima, a compiled component. I don't see why one should demand
more grace from a Lisp compiler than from a C compiler. The maxima bug can
