This looks OK. Please investigate what happens when TeXmacs starts Maxima.
You can hack /usr/libexec/TeXmacs/bin/tm_maxima a little (or where this 
thing lives on BSD?) First, it's interesting to know what arguments 
TeXmacs passes to tm_maxima. Insert a line
echo $1 $2 > /tmp/foo
near the beginning, and you will know. Correct arguments in your case 
should be
5.9.0 gcl
Then, change the line
5.9.0) exec maxima -u $1 -l $2 -p 
"$TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH/texmacs-maxima-5.9.0.lisp" | maxima_filter;;
to
5.9.0) exec maxima -u $1 -l $2 -p 
"$TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH/texmacs-maxima-5.9.0.lisp" | tee /tmp/bar | 
maxima_filter;;
Then you will see if Maxima sends its intro text (GCL (GNU Common Lisp)  
(2.5.3) Do 25 Mr 2004 22:10:55 CET etc.) to TeXmacs.
