load problem with lapack in 5.19.2



Hello,
 lapack won't load as a standard user.

(%i2) build_info();

Maxima version: 5.19.2
Maxima build date: 13:10 9/20/2009
host type: i686-pc-linux-gnu
lisp-implementation-type: CMU Common Lisp
lisp-implementation-version: 19d Fedora release 5.fc8 (19D)

(%o2)
(%i3) load(lapack);

Maxima version: 5.19.2

stdin:16:Incorrect syntax: : is not a prefix operator
\n:l
  ^

As root, however, it does load.

Any ideas?
 TIA,
