RE: Maxima 5.9.0.9beta1 - specfn



Yes, this  is a documentation error.  When I wrote specfun, gcl was all I 
knew about. 
The new version of specfun (now called orthopoly) doesn't have this
documentation error:

I can add that isn't a windows specific packaging problem, as specfun.o 
isn't in the build directory I used for the windows installer.

Perhaps it is a documentation error, as the extension on compiled version
will depend on the underlying lisp.
