Maxima 5.10.0 has been released.  This version features better
documentation, an improved Windows installer, improvements to the
Xmaxima user interface, faster integer factorization, and several new
add-on packages.

Maxima is a computer algebra system written in Common Lisp. It is a
descendant of DOE Macsyma, whose origins date back to the late 1960s
at MIT.

Will it finally work on ppc instead of just segfaulting?

Segfaults in lisp? I haven't used the specific algebra system in question, but that sounds a lot more like a bug in your common lisp implementation. Exceptions and miscellaneous errors of that sort would be understandable, but a segfault would much more likely be the fault of your CL interpreter.
