Yes, vect redefines . to be the scalar product of two vectors.
We (Maxima development team) should rework vect so that the
scalar product is represented in some other way, and leave . alone.
In the meantime ... I can't think of a simple workaround.
I'll propose a revision of vect in the next couple of days.
Of course, if someone else has a different approach I would
be interested to hear about it.
