Comment(by kcrisman):
[http://www.math.utexas.edu/pipermail/maxima/2011/025854.html Here] is a
response from one Maxima developer.
{{{
Maxima probably isn't supported on this platform because probably no
developer normally works on PPC Linux. I might be wrong about that.
On the other hand, I have built maxima just fine using a 64-bit version
of ecl on Linux (x86) and Solaris (sparc). So I would guess that the
problem you are seeing is due to ecl.
}}}
If there are any other responses, I'll update here.
