[Bug-openmcl] problem compiling maxima

Hi,
This is with maxima from CVS and OpenMCL built from CVS (not bleeding 
edge) around November 26. I'm sorry that I haven't narrowed the problem 
down a bit; it is repeatable if you try to build all of maxima, but the 
actual failure is not repeatable in isolation.

Check maxima out from 
:pserver:anonymous at cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/maxima
./configure --enable-openmcl 
--with-openmcl=/Users/moore/openmcl-cvs14/ccl/dppccl
make bootstrap
make
(At some point in the make you end up at the top level prompt, due to a 
problem with the make rule; just type (quit))
Eventually there will be an error:
;      - Compiling source file "/Users/moore/maxima/src/mdebug.lisp"
;Compiling "/Users/moore/maxima/src/mdebug.lisp"...
 > Error in process listener(1): Unbound variable: ARGS
 > While executing: F
 > Type :GO to continue, :POP to abort.
 > If continued: Retry getting the value of ARGS.
but a quick look at the macro in question (f) shows that this can't be 
so.

Let me know if I can provide more info,
Tim
