Greetings!  A Debian user just submitted this, and I have confirmed.
Is there any simple fix?

Take care,

Subject: Bug#99447: maxima: Summation command displays incorrectly
Date: Thu, 31 May 2001 21:35:38 -0400
To: submit@bugs.debian.org
From: Daniel Sullivan <daniels at mdo>

Package: maxima
Version: 5.6-6
Severity: normal

The result of the "sum" command displays the summation symbol
with the symbols in the wrong places:

Actual maxima output:

(C2) sum(n^2,n,1,n);

                                 n
                                   ====
                                   \2
(D2)                                >n
                                   /
                                   ====
                             n = 1


Output should be:

(C2) sum(n^2,n,1,n);

                                      n
                                   ====
                                   \     2
(D2)                                >   n
                                   /
                                   ====
                                  n = 1


I have a windows version of maxima 5.5 that displays correctly so the
difference may have occurred between maxima 5.5 and maxima 5.6.
