Thanks for the suggestion.  The clisp rebuild happened due to libsegv
finally becoming available and I don't expect a flurry of further clisp
rebuilds or updates, so I think we're still fine.  Once I get some more
kinks in the build system ironed out I might consider giving the user a
way to rebuild the memory image for maxima, which is the only thing that
really needed to be updated going from -2 to -3.


Regards,
Achim.
