[asdf-devel] Q about ASDF on LW

[Daniel Herring]

Hi Nick,

Note that this release of asdf has asdf-binary-locations built in.  Thus 
it does not need to be loaded separately (input 4 below).  Instead, load 
ASDF then (setf asdf:*enable-asdf-binary-locations* t).

If you clear the asdf fasl and restart LW, does that work without blowing 
the stack?

- Daniel
