The current version of Maxima (00fcc04) bumps into several failures in
rtestint when compiled with GCL 2.6.14.
GCL advertises itself as:
GCL (GNU Common Lisp) 2.6.14 Fri Jan 13 10:47:56 AM EST 2023 ANSI git:
Version_2_6_14
The failures start with
Running tests in rtestint:
********************** Problem 56 ***************
Input:
cos(x)
integrate(------, x, minf, inf)
2
x + 1
Result:
- 1 2
%e (%e + 1) %pi
-------------------
2
This differed from the expected result:
- 1
%e %pi
and then there are about a dozen more in a similar vein. There aren't any
unexpected failures in any other test scripts.
I don't remember seeing failures in rtestint before, although I don't check
regularly. I don't know if it's due to a change in Maxima or in GCL.
I built the same Maxima version w/ other Lisps (SBCL, Clisp, Clozure CL,
ECL) and none of them report errors in rtestint.
I haven't taken the time to investigate, can anyone hazard a guess?
