defsystem 3.4 interim 3 in our current spkg.

The bug report for that report
([http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2803755&group_id=4933&atid=104933
here]), by the way, was closed after no one followed up on it and Maxima
had upgrade a fair amount in the meantime. But it's not clear that
particular issue was resolved.
Also, it's very hard to find defsystem.lisp. Apparently it's still being
developed, but it's very hard to find out where...
