Hi Tim! The behavior you describe is CLTL1. CLTL2 and ansi say you
have to make-package first. As this change did not break our existing
'customers' maxima and acl2, we just incorporated it into the base
image. If it is a problem for you, I could escape the updated
behavior to only kick in when configuring the ansi image. Shouldn't be
too tough to add a make-package, no?
Take care,
