Yes. I've been building Maxima using Clozure CL + XP since summer
2009. Initially, I had to use the defsystem.lisp that comes with Clozure,
but recently, Maxima's defsystem.lisp works OK, I think.

Try Clozure version 1.4; occasionally, but not often, I've had
problems with non-release versions of Clozure.
