Strange, I just rebuilt Maxima CVS with patched Paths.tcl and GCL 2.6.3 
- works fine to me on both Windows XP and Windows Me.  Even more -
strange compile_file problem mysteriously went away.  So, this Maxima 
Windows installer seems to be perfectly OK.  I'll test on other OS 
tomorrow. On the other hand I could upload this installer somewhere if 
for public testing.
