When GCL is built, --enable-ansi must be specified (it is disabled by default).
Otherwise GCL cannot build Maxima. To the best of my knowledge the
only way to proceed is to recompile GCL with --enable-ansi.
For other Lisp implementations (Clisp, SBCL, CMUCL) no special
configuration flags are needed, again, to the best of my knowledge.
