When I ran your program in Clisp, it complained about the accented
letter i in the comment above, and the Maxima parser got stuck there
and just endlessly printed an error message about a undefined
character sequence or something. (I guess the locale is UTF-8 and the
bytes corresponding to accented i don't encode any character in that
locale ... I'm no expert about that.)

Anyway that's a bug in the parser --- probably it should just eat
any troublesome bytes (certainly if they are in comments).
Maybe someone can take a look at that.
