[asdf-devel] ASDF test-op question

[Robert P. Goldman]

No, nobody's supposed to parse it. It's just so if you want you can look at 
*only* the output of the tester, not the output of the tester mooshed 
together with the output of the compiler.

Our tester does a bunch of compilation and esp on sbcl, the test output 
proper gets mixed together with lots of chaff, so it's hard to find, e.g., 
which tests are failing...
