   I've looked into both Clojure and ABCL.
   
   Clojure is so far from CL that porting Maxima is IMHO not possible -  
   the only way would be a rewrite.

You are understandably confused.  Clozjure CL and Clozure are two
different languages.  The former is an implementation of CL.  The latter
is not.  I believe the current thread was considering the former, not
the latter.
