[asdf-devel] Problem with time skew

[Sid H]

Hi,

I'm using ASDF on CCL running on a TI ARM Cortex A8 processor with Linux. I have 
a 
very simple hello world system written that I'm trying out.

When I try to load, I find that that find-system is called continuously and 
this never ends. I see the following on my slime window.

CL-USER> (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op 'cl-syslink)
; Loading system definition from /home/root/ccl/tools/cl-syslink.asd into #
<Package "ASDF0">
; Registering #<SYSTEM "cl-syslink"> as cl-syslink
; Loading system definition from /home/root/ccl/tools/cl-syslink.asd into #
<Package "ASDF1">
; Loading system definition from /home/root/ccl/tools/cl-syslink.asd into #
<Package "ASDF2">
....

On investigation I found that the universal-time stored in *defined-systems* is 
just slightly behind the file-write-date. The dates I see are in-memory: 
3499707641 and safe-file-write-date 3500387179. 

I'm not sure why the time skew exists but I can always abort the recursive calls 
after a few times and then use the system. 

Any thoughts on this? Is this seen on any other implementation/OS?
