I am pretty sure there is a small, but important conflict between clisp
2.31 and Maxima 5.9.0. The good news is that the problem is fixed in
CVS. The bad news is that I don't remember exactly which change it was.
(Anyone else? It may have been a change for CMUCL. It definitely
predates Clisp 2.31.)
We need to think about making a 5.9.1 release. In the meantime, getting
the CVS version of Maxima would be the easiest workaround.
