Hi,

I noticed that after the update of gcl from 2.6.11 to 2.6.12, maxima
fails to build.

http://hydra.gnu.org/job/gnu/master/maxima-5.34.1.x86_64-linux

Could we revert to the previous version until the incompatibility
between the two is fixed?

Regards,
Fede

do you see a way of fixing it? That would be the best solution!
Or is it a documented and known problem?

No, right now I do not have time to look into this, but a quick search
suggests that maybe it's a matter of gcl compilation flags.

After having a look at the maxima log I suspect that we are hitting
this problem:

Thanks for working on this! I tried dropping the 'strip' phase for gcl,
and now maxima starts to be built. So assuming it succeeds, I would suggest
to not strip gcl.
