In the current git master of maxima

   build_info();

already contains much more information than it used to since many
questions in the mailing list seemed to suggest that this was needed.

My current build_info() is:

(%i1)    build_info();
(%o1)    build_info(version=
"branch_5_43_base_507_g546f8c3d6",
timestamp="2020-05-16 23:13:45",host=
"x86_64-pc-linux-gnu",lisp_name="SBCL",
lisp_version="2.0.4.debian",maxima_userdir=
"/home/gunter/.maxima",maxima_tempdir=
"/tmp",maxima_objdir=
"/home/gunter/src/maxima-code/binary/branch_5_43_base_507_g546f8c3d6/sbcl/2_0_4_debian"
,maxima_frontend="wxMaxima",
maxima_frontend_version=
"20.04.0-DevelopmentSnapshot_GTK3_OpenMP201511+Locks")

Since the build_info() is a struct it should not be too compicated to
extend it with more information, though, without risking to break
pre-existing code.

Kind regards,
