I have also Mac OS X 10.4.5, and I installed sbcl 0.9.10 from Darwinports.
The problem is that sbcl is a shell script, that runs sbcl.bin --core
sbcl.core or something similar, and maxima then supplies another --core
argument which sbcl.bin doesn't like.
It only wants one --core.
So what happens when you issue the command
sbcl --core maxima.core from the command line?
Others have the same problem, for example see
