Hmm - I notice an oddity with case sensitivity here, or at least I
think I do:
Maxima 5.9.1.1cvs http://maxima.sourceforge.net
Using Lisp SBCL 0.8.20

Dedicated to the memory of William Schelter.
This is a development version of Maxima. The function bug_report()
provides bug reporting information.
(%i1) postfix("F");
(%o1) "f"
(%i2) postfix("f");
(%o2) "f"
(%i3) (x)f:=x*a;
(%o3) x f := x a
(%i4) 40f;
(%o4) 40 a
(%i5) 40F;
Incorrect syntax: f is not an infix operator
(%i5)
Shouldn't it be distinguishing between upper and lower case here?
