Thanks for your report.  Full intel mac support is in the latest release, 2.6.10.  Please let me know if problems persist.

You'll need the X development libraries off of the X-code cd.
Alternatively you could install fink http://fink.sourceforge.net/
to get yourself an actual compilation environment.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am trying to install MAXIMA on my MacOSX 10.3.9 iBook G4.
According to the documentation I found on the web,

----------------------------------------------------------------------
GCL is the official Common Lisp for the GNU project. Its design makes use of the system's C compiler to compile to native object code, providing for both good performance and facile portability. GCL currently compiles itself and the primary free software Lisp applications, Maxima , ACL2 and Axiom, on eleven GNU/Linux architectures (x86 powerpc s390 sparc arm alpha ia64 hppa m68k mips mipsel), Windows, Sparc Solaris, and FreeBSD.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I downloaded gcl-2.6.6 and followed the instructions in "readme".
However I receive several error messages. One is related to X,
which I use regularly (although it is called X11 or xterm), but
there are other errors too (perhaps because the configuration was unsuccessful).

I am appending the fatal error(s) below. I would be grateful for
any help in properly installing GCL and/or MAXIMA (or the URL of any MacOSX
binaries that may be available).

Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Oliver Clay
