I've tried to compile with Clisp, but here's what I get:

[cliff@shemp src]$ make clisp-compile CLISP="clisp -K full"
echo '(progn (load "compile-clisp.lisp")(compile-maxima))' | clisp -K
full
  i i i i i i i       ooooo    o        ooooooo   ooooo   ooooo
  I I I I I I I      8     8   8           8     8     o  8    8
  I  \ `+' /  I      8         8           8     8        8    8
   \  `-+-'  /       8         8           8      ooooo   8oooo
    `-__|__-'        8         8           8           8  8
        |            8     o   8           8     o     8  8
  ------+------       ooooo    8oooooo  ooo8ooo   ooooo   8
