Recently display2d and some other variables were given assignment
properties to prevent invalid assignments. display2d, as it stands
now, can only be assigned true or false. I guess this is an oversight
-- actually other values should be allowed, it appears.

You can remove the assignment property via

:lisp (setf (get '$display2d 'assign) nil)

before you try to assign 'emaxima to display2d.

I guess the assignment property for display2d needs to be updated to
allow other values.
