I tried changing --enable-clisp to --enable-clisp-exec to work around this, but no luck:

 * QA Notice: Pre-stripped files found:
 * /usr/lib64/maxima/5.46.0/binary-clisp/maxima

It's also notable that clisp is the only implementation that generates the warning.

It looks like someone is finally working on GNU clisp again:

  https://gitlab.com/gnu-clisp/clisp

It may be worth checking if this problem still exists in git HEAD. Note that changing --enable-clisp to --enable-clisp-exec in the maxima ebuild is probably still required. Without that, maxima bundles a copy of your clisp executable (which was already stripped once).
