No, this is a problem in the TeXmacs interface to maxima. Different 
versions of maxima differ quite strongly (e.g., the transition 5.9.1 -> 
5.9.2 brought case sensitivity). So, the script tm_maxima is, basically, a 
long case statement over maxima versions. TeXmacs-1.0.6 is older than 
maxima-5.9.3, and this script (in 1.0.6) does not know what to do with 
"5.9.3". A simplest fix is to treat it exactly the same way as 5.9.2 (no 
big changes from the interfacing point of view).

This is already fixed in TeXmacs cvs, so, the next version of TeXmacs will 
work with maxima-5.9.3 out of the box.
