Comment(by pcpa):

 I asked in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gcl-
 devel/2010-03/msg00000.html about some possible solution for the issue of
 gcl backend hanging, but now I believe I found a better workaround, so
 that, maxima gcl backend has the same behavior as other lisps.

 The problem is that adapting the solution used for clisp in
 `$SAGE_LOCAL/bin/sage-maxima.lisp `was not enough, as for some reason, the
 predicate `(output-stream-p *standard-input*) `was still true in the
 maxima parsing error message code.

 The new patch should correct the issue, or at least, now it doesn't hang
 in the doctect

 `sage: maxima.eval('sage0: x == x;')`
