I wish somebody would re-write the simplification functions
for the arithmetic operators so that they use object-oriented
dispatch. 

Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think tellsimpafter
is sturdy enough for incorporating new objects, such as
real intervals, into maxima.

Oh sure--the effort for appending n new objects is O(n^2).
So it goes.
