Maxima build with gcl has a strange limit on the number of arguments to
functions. This causes problems for some commands:

-----
(%i1) l : makelist(i,i,1,100)$
(%i2) apply(max, l);

Maxima encountered a Lisp error:

 Error in MACSYMA-TOP-LEVEL [or a callee]: MACSYMA-TOP-LEVEL [or a
callee] requires less than one hundred arguments.

Automatically continuing.
To reenable the Lisp debugger set *debugger-hook* to nil.

(%i3) build_info()$

This example works in other lisps and in beta2 on windows. It does not
work in rc1 on windows (same error).
