Comment:
Indeed:
```
$ rmaxima 
Maxima 5.45.1 https://maxima.sourceforge.io

```

Caveats:
 - this only works if `sbcl` is installed (for the file "/usr/lib/sbcl/contrib/sb-gmp.fasl")
 - moreover the version of sbcl used to compile maxima has to match the version of sbcl used to compile `sb-gmp.fasl` (rn maxima was compiled with 2.1.11 but sbcl is at 2.2.0)
 - the "require" statement needs the full path to `sb-gmp.fasl` (not a real problem)
