Uh-oh.  Reviewing my route to Maxima, I find that I downloaded the 
Windows executable NOT from sourceforge but from a link in 
http://www.ma.utexas.edu/maxima.html -- at which I arrived from google 
("Maxima algebra -Nissan").  Maxima's first output line says, "Maxima 
5.5 Tue Dec 5 16:55:33 2000 (with enhancements by W. Schelter)."    !!   
Pre-memorial!  Somehow I overlooked the bright red text on the utexas 
page that says the page is no longer maintained.

I re-installed from sourceforge and I'm now running 5.17.0.  
load("abs_integrate") now works.   By the way, I don't know where 
abs_integrate.mac should reside canonically, so I just put it in 
C:/Program Files/Maxima-5.17.0/share/maxima/5.17.0/share/

Thanks for the advice and the kind welcome.
