 the LISP system to ecl, which builds on my system without issues. I don't
 really know where to go from here, so somebody with more knowledge of the
 ports build system is going to have to step in. Why do I mention ecl?
 SageMath uses ecl to support maxima in their system and my build of
 SageMath from its makefile goes off without a hitch, even with the most
 current version. I can use Maxima in SageMath, but I am pushing this here
 on principle because I don't like to see my system progressively obsoleted
 deeper and deeper by stuff Apple is doing as a corporation. That said, I
 am perfectly  happy to be told by the maintainer for this port that we
 have reached a dead end or that it's too much trouble to look farther.

 both of which Maxima just fine.  I'm pretty sure that the Maxima
 maintainer would be willing to add a variant for 'ecl' as well as opposed
 to moving the default off of 'sbcl'.

 I like the idea about adding a maxima variant with ecl dependence, just to
 see how it goes. Truth: I know nothing about LISP.
