Comment (by nbruin):
The proposed lisp function makes me cringe. Wouldn't
{{{
(defprop mfactorial nil grind)
}}}
be a bit more elegant? That simply removes `mfactorial`s special "grind"
(maxima print) property, so that the default method of printing takes
effect again.
This should be a quite safe change to make to maxima. We're doing much
worse patching in the maxima_lib interface. Since "!" would be the only
postfix operator, it's a bit of wasted effort to extend the parser to
accept it.
