When you said "I have confirmed that these failures do not occur in a maxima-5.26.0 built with gcl/gcc-4.6.2", I assume you mean built from the standard Maxima 5.26.0 source code release, as opposed to a CVS snapshot. If that is correct, then I figure this is how the official Windows Maxima 5.26.0 binary ought to be built. Again, if that assumption is correct, then will you please post a download link to this Windows binary built from the official Maxima 5.26.0 source code release?

James,

Thanks for the feedback. You are correct.  I built the maxima from the 
5.26.0 release tarball and ran the testsuite without error.  It is a bit 
more work to generate a release but I will give it a go over the weekend.

I'd like to see some more testing before we make the change, as I can't 
build gcl or maxima under windows 7 - only winXP.  It seems to work OK, 
but I haven't tested much.
