I see a similar problem when I "load(lapack)".   To confirm that it was a 
maxima problem I ran just maxima from a shell with the batch file:
        load(lapack);
        quit();

The result was horribly long and looked like:
======================
(%i1)                        batch(maxima-bug.wxm)

batching #p/home/mackay/rhic/orbit/oscharm/maxima-bug.wxm
(%i2)                            load(lapack)
Maxima encountered a Lisp error:

 Error in MACSYMA-TOP-LEVEL [or a callee]: Couldn't protect

Automatically continuing.
To reenable the Lisp debugger set *debugger-hook* to nil.
