Also, it would be nice if Maxima could search for updates and
optionally install them. Some code (macros) couldn't be easily
updated, but most (maybe all) the code in share could be, I think.

One downside: bug reports could be difficult to duplicate; if
every file in share had an accurate version number, an update scheme
might be workable.
