Looks exactly like what I had when I did the same thing on linux (x86 and amd64) and OS X 10.5. It's all numerical and formatting noise. Upgrading maxim to 5.23.2 at the same time generated only one or two more broken tests (and of them was a good thing: maxima integrated something it couldn't before). I posted something about it earlier with other potential upgrades: http://groups.google.com/group/sage- devel/browse_thread/thread/9baec937c873dcb7 Someone commented that ecl-11.1.1 had an horrible bug.
