On my Linux Athlon XP1800+
In console mode, I have all tests passed (except the "Expected failures at
rtest15.mac(4)"). Within xmaxima the same via both clisp(2.29) and
gcl(2.5.0, but it is not the latest one). On the xmaxima+cmucl (18d+ built
2002-09-13) testing breaks on the rtestflatten after finishing problem29 with
Ok message.
