I'll file a bug, but does anybody know what is going wrong wtih:

(%o7)
156*x^7+4808*x^6-182041*x^5-1266489*x^4+43104271*x^3+29839285*x^2-2542327662*x+7826952672

(%i8) factor(%);
Maxima encountered a Lisp error:
 Error in MACSYMA-TOP-LEVEL [or a callee]: Bind stack overflow.

(%i9) build_info();
Maxima version: 5.11.0
Maxima build date: 22:25 12/26/2006
host type: i686-pc-mingw32
lisp-implementation-type: GNU Common Lisp (GCL)
lisp-implementation-version: GCL 2.6.8

PS The CVS version of topoly tries to handle max / min expressions.
The polynomial in (%o7) was generated by while processing
topoly(max(x,-5) + abs(1-x) - min(x/7,2) - 8)
