[Maxima] ODEs: rk routing with derivs on rhs

[Daniel Lakeland]

Many thanks to sheldon who helped me reformulate the equations. It
turned out with the appropriate carefulness maxima could rearrange the
equations to be free of derivatives on the rhs. I think this is a case
of "you should have printed it out". Sometimes math is easier to do on
paper.

Now, here's a simpler question:

Why does "? rk" work on my machine at work (windows maxima 5.10) but
not at home (debian 5.10 with maxima-share package)

On windows it tells me about the runge kutta routine in the "dynamics"
package. But even though everything is up to date on the debian
machine, ? rk only gives me

? rk

 -- System variable: tensorkill
     Variable indicating if the tensor package has been initialized.
     Set and used by `csetup', reset by `init_ctensor'.
