Comment (by stumpc5):

 From my email discussion with Jean Michel:
 {{{

 indeed

 (however

 Well,  yes. There were  patches to the  library loaded when loading
 Chevie.
 Since  I maintain the whole distribution, I  decided it makes more sense
 to
 *do*  these  patches  to  the  library  once  and  for  all (this could
 fix
 undiscovered  bugs in other  packages). So the  correct behaviour of
 Chevie
 depends on having my version of gap3/lib.
 }}}

 @Jeroen, what do you think how to proceed from here?
