Current CVS Maxima + Clisp + Linux yields .4960545512865969.
Last week CVS + ECL + Linux yields .4960545512865966.
As with the other elliptic_e problem, my first guess is that
ECL calls C libraries which yield different results.
The above was generated on Solaris, right?
Maybe someone can try it on other systems.
