New description:
With maxima-as-an-ecl-library and ecl accessible as a library, we can
start interfacing with maxima via a binary library interface. This should
be more efficient and more robust, because expressions can be transmitted
in a much richer format than text and parsing does not have to recognise
error messages and questions (since communication does not go via
STDIN/STDOUT anymore).
Applies cleanly to 4.6.2.
Depends on: #10766, #10773, #10743. #10818 desirable but not essential.

Comment:
I am adding Karl to the list of authors, do a little fiddling and take the
responsibility of switching that to positive review. I think we have a
large consensus among the people involved that this works. Now is the time
to have a bigger test.
