The January snapshot of CMUCL can no longer build maxima because of a
change in CMUCL affecting how it handles Lisp pathnames with an
explicit host of nil. This breaks the defsytem included with maxima.
There is a simple 1-line fix for this, and it has been incorporated
into the latest version of defsystem. I took a look and the latest
defsystem has changed a bit from maxima's version.
Should we incorporate the latest version or just apply the 1-line fix?
I think we should use the latest version, but that might break other
things.
