[Openmcl-devel] Maxima + Clozure on Windows

[R. Matthew Emerson]

If bugs in CCL are causing Maxima to fail some tests, I'm interested  
in fixing those bugs.

Test cases (in lisp) that demonstrate those bugs would help me do that.

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar enough with Maxima or its build/test  
infrastructure in order to track down any bugs from the problems you  
mention in your message.
