Well, right. But you and I both know that the issue will be the
compiler switches and other "trivial issues", likely to burn up a
month or so of fribitzing around. Sigh.

The time has come to prove something so ... let the fribitzing begin.

Most of the work last year was enhancing the computer algebra test
suite portion of Axiom with Albert Rich's integrals. Other than that
I've been swallowing code into the books, another set of changes that
are not really user-visible. But a new release should happen.

I will roll out a new release and send you an email when it is ready.
