I upgraded (from a freshly built 4.2, Intel Mac (Dual Quad Xeon), Mac  
OS X 10.5.8) and ran 'sage -testall'.  An impressive number of tests  
failed due to a failure to start maxima.  When I tried to run maxima  
from a "sage shell", I got this:

   sage subshell$ maxima
   ;;; Loading #P"/SandBox/Justin/sb/sage-4.2/local/lib/ecl/ 
DEFSYSTEM.fas"

   Internal or unrecoverable error in:
   not a lisp data object
     [2: No such file or directory]
   Abort trap

This is the portion of the upgrade log dealing with the maxima package:

   sage-spkg maxima-5.19.1.p0 2>&1
   Warning: Attempted to overwrite SAGE_ROOT environment variable
   maxima-5.19.1.p0
   Machine:
   Darwin c-71-198-177-168.hsd1.ca.comcast.net 9.8.0 Darwin Kernel  
Version 9.8.0: \
      Wed Jul 15 16:55:01 PDT 2009; root:xnu-1228.15.4~1/RELEASE_I386  
i386
   sage: maxima-5.19.1.p0 is already installed
   sage-spkg weave-0.4.9.p0 2>&1

When I built 4.2, I ran "-testall" and all tests passed.

Any thoughts?

Regards,

Justin
