Comment:
An updated Maxima spkg is available at
http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mhansen/maxima-5.19.1.p2.spkg
I have built Sage 4.3.alpha0 from scratch with that package. The
compilation process went OK on the following platforms:
* sage.math --- Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS. All doctests pass, except the known
failure with the Maxima interface.
* rosemary.math --- Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5.4. All doctests
pass, except the known failure with the Maxima interface.
* bsd.math --- Mac OS X 10.6.2. Numerous doctest failures as expected as
this platform is not yet completely supported.
After the build and doctests, you could run ECL and using Maxima as a
library. Do either "./sage -ecl" or from a Sage command line session, do
"!ecl":
{{{

((MAXIMA::MTIMES MAXIMA::SIMP) 3
((MAXIMA::MEXPT MAXIMA::SIMP MAXIMA::RATSIMP) MAXIMA::$X 5))))
> (quit)
}}}
So by this stage, Maxima can be built as a Lisp library. I'm doing more
build/tests on other Linux boxes.
