I'm generally a little hesitant about including version tests. > There should be no issue with any gcl version, as the original evasion of the gcl output was just intended to keep sys-proclaims.lisp relatively constant from an svn point of view. I.e. maxima took gcl's output, and tried to rewrite it in less volatile form. All gcl versions will be able to process all sys-proclaims.lisp generated by the same version. As I indicated before, the default build as of 5.33.0 appears to be to build twice, once just to generate the sys-proclaims.lisp file on the fly. So really this file need not be in maxima's archive at all, and you will have no concerns that you have version skew in this regard.
