 John Pallister on #abcl reported problems with configuring ASDF via {{{
 (asdf:initialize-source-registry '(:source-registry (:tree (:home
 "src/synchromesh")) :inherit-configuration))}}} for which he later traced
 down to problems with a pathname NAME containing a #\* character:

 {{{
 <synchromesh> Ooh, that's interesting - EXTENSIONS:PROBE-DIRECTORY has
 found a filename in the specified directory tree that contains a "*".
 <synchromesh> Then (much deeper)
 org.armedbear.lisp.probe_file$pf_probe_directory.execute(probe_file.java:88)
 throws the error.
 }}}

 The exact error cases here still needs to be determined.

 TBD:  What does it mean to PROBE-{DIRECTORY,FILE} on a PATHNAME containing
 #\*?
