gcl comes with sloop, so it probably doesn't need to be compiled at
all.
But I think the issue is that maxima wants to write the files to
share/affine/binary-gcl, but didn't create the directory first.[1] Try
creating that directory and loading affine again.

Footnotes:
[1] I think this is a problem with gcl. It doesn't have
ensure-directories-exist so that mk:defsys can't create the necessary
directories.
