SBCL 1.0.2 for windows builds a Maxima that passes all the tests
in the test suite (SBCL 1.0 failed one test---maybe a atanh).
SBCL 1.0.2 for windows still carries a warning "Your Kitten of Death
awaits!"
Neither Xmaxima or wxMaxima work with SBCL for windows (at least for me.
I can't even run Maxima compiled with SBCL in an XEmacs terminal window.
