This is the version of Maxima that I downloaded and built twice and it
gave the same errors from the test suite both times on my 64-bit Linux
Mint 14 computer with SBCL-1.1.4 which I complied from source.

I couldn't find a tag for 5.29 and the only way I knew to look for
branch-5.29 is I happened notice it on the sourceforge git webpage. It
was only after I took another look at the git man pages that I was able
to figure out that I needed to do a "git checkout branch-5_29" to get
the current version for building. Once I did that, everything worked
properly and the test suite ran without errors. My build_info now gives:
%i1) build_info ();
(%o1)
Maxima version: "5.28.0_179_g3ddde46" <--- NOTICE that it still shows
as version 5.28, but the 3ddde46 is the same as branch-5_29
Maxima build date: "2013-02-24 19:32:23"
Host type: "x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu"
Lisp implementation type: "SBCL"
Lisp implementation version: "1.1.4"
