[Maxima] share testsuite

[Barton Willis]

Ugh! I'm guessing that my hypergeometric code has this bug for some
time. Previously, rtest_hg had a funny scheme that did something like
load, compile, load, so I didn't see the bug. I removed this scheme
from rtest_hg because it may have caused trouble for some non-CCL
Lisps. Since make clean doesn't delete compiled code that is in
/share, you have to be careful.

Usually, non-mathematical bugs flummox me, but I'll see what I can
do. Thanks for testing with SBCL + Clisp.
