It is marked as "critical", and has been open 4 months, but it seems to have got
no attention at all.
Perhaps someone who knows a bit about the pexpect/maxima interface might take a
look.
Unfortunately, I'm not one that knows enough about the Maxima interface
to fix this. However, I do know that
modular/overconvergent/weightspace.py has no reason to use Maxima.
As soon as the trac server is working again, I'll have a patch for this
small issue up at
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/9843
Best,

It's nice to know that running the tests 100 times and reporting the failures
managed to unearth a bug.
As you say, trac is down - it looks like /var is full on whatever machine runs
the server. /var is often used for log files. Perhaps someone with root access
on whatever machine it is could clean up /var.
