maxima makefile etc



Hello,
Of course it's not a bug, it just shows the limits for 'n lisps' statement:
====
[1] SLATEC(11): :cont 1
;;; Compiling file numerical\slatec\d9b0mp.lisp
Error: An allocation request for 16 bytes caused tenuring and a need
        for 6553600 more bytes of heap. This request cannot be satisfied
        because you have hit the Allegro CL Trial heap limit.  If you
        wish to purchase Allegro CL please contact Franz Inc. at
        sales@franz.com or by calling (510) 548-3600.
   [condition type: STORAGE-CONDITION]


I tried to follow the steps on maxima-5.9.0rc3 sources (first sources I 
found in my windows basket), but I doubt that the latest cvs requires 
less memory.
