Good idea.

Hmmm... I was going to tell you to add a maxima-init.lisp in the share
directory. However, that would lead to confusion if a user ever makes
his/her own maxima-init.lisp in the user directory because the share
version would never be loaded. There are clearly some tedious issues to
be worked out here, but they will have to wait for a subsequent release.
I guess you should just modify the default in plot.lisp before building.
I am generally against building installers from modified sources, but I
think it would be forgivable in this case.
