The one from 5.9.0. Good question, because in looking I noticed a whole
bunch of files in /usr/share/maxima/5.9.0/emacs that I hadn't copied
into my site-lisp path. To fix it, I just put
/usr/share/maxima/5.9.0/emacs in my load path, maybe that's what I was
supposed to do in the first place. In any event, once that was fixed, it
worked fine with C-cC-b.
Thanks!
