Thanks to all who sent information to help me get Macsyma going.  Macsyma
and a number of other programs were produced by Franz Liszt under Eunice
under version 3.x of VMS.  The image was created by Franz, not the VMS
linker.  The image header had a zero in a certain byte which should have
been a 1 (image header block count).  VMS never checked this but now it does.
The patch is as follows:

$ Patch/absolute svaxima.exe
