Ihor, you recently applied an alternative patch to Org main branch. 
Emacs tree still has ob-maxima.el with single quotes around batchload.

Notice that code in the message you cited has "%s" and does not have

Really robust solution require a dedicated maxima option that allows to 
pass file name as a separated argument instead of a part of expression,
