Installing maxima with clisp, CLISP 2.30, CLISP 2.29 ?



I apologize if this has already been discussed on the mailing list; I
made a cursory search and could not find anything relevant.

On my linux box, I installed   maxima-5.9.0, from the rpm package
provided at sourceforge, with maxima-exec-clisp-5.9.0-1.i386.rpm, which
requires CLISP 2.29, according to the README.

I couldn't find clisp 2.29, so I used clisp 2.30.  After everything is
installed, I tried starting maxima, and it tells me:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
$ maxima
/usr/lib/clisp/base/lisp.run: initialization file was not created by
this version of LISP
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Can someone tell me a simple way to get around this, without getting an
older version of clisp?  Are things smoother in general with CMUCL or
GCL?

In any case, I suppose this is something the developers should know
about.
