More like

(asdf:initialize-output-translations
 `(:asdf-output-translations
    (:root (,(truename *default-pathname-defaults*) :implementation-type))))

or if you want to only redirect output for what's in
the current self-contained directory, and want it to
be inside a predictable subdirectory thereof, you can use:

(let ((cwd (truename *default-pathname-defaults*)))
  (asdf:initialize-output-translations
   `(:asdf-output-translations
      (,cwd (,cwd "asdf-output" :implementation-type)))))
