Hmm, I'm not seeing an error of that kind. I built GCL from a tarball
tagged "Version_2_6_13pre120".

No error here. "/tmp/blurf.mumble3" doesn't exist yet.

>(with-open-file (s "/tmp/blurf.mumble3" :direction :output :if-exists 
>:supersede) (write-char #\a s))

 ~/.../maxima-code $ od -c /tmp/blurf.mumble3
0000000   a
0000001

as expected.

best
