Honestly I haven't tried to compile clean sources yet, as the
compilation itself is quite lengthy on my machine.

I just fetched the latest source package (5.9.3-1.1) using apt-get
source and compiled it with "fakeroot ./debian/rules binary"

The output of the compilation phase (invoked with "./maxima-local") is a
full working maxima that doesn't display the bug.  On the other hand,
the final output (installed with "dpkg -i ../maxima_5.9.3-1.1_powerpc.deb" 
and invoked by typing just "maxima") doesn't start, printing:

        Unrecoverable error: Segmentation violation..
        Aborted

I tried to disable stripping, by deleting any dh_strip line in
debian/rules, to no avail: the bug in the final package is still there.
