Thanks, that helps a lot.  After some experimentation, it seems like
gap> LoadPackage("CRISP");
is sufficient.

However, when I try to do it from sage I get the following:
sage: gap.eval('LoadPackage("CRISP");')
Warning: this should never happen

and sage hangs.  Googling leads me to
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sage-support/60HHHL8Bw_8, which I
interpret as suggesting that CRISP is using LoadDynamicModule. However,
searching on https://github.com/bh11/crisp, I don't see any calls to that
function.  Is there something else that could be responsible?  Is there a
way to use CRISP through gap.eval in Sage?
