I'm pretty sure the problem with compile (both Maxima and
Lisp functions) is somewhat different. GCL is writing or attempting
to write temporary files without checking the permissions of the
current working directory (or whatever the equivalent is called
in Windows). I've filed a bug report for GCL on this topic.
I suppose we could #-gcl the few places where COMPILE is
called, although I'm not very excited about that.
