[asdf-devel] question for API

[Robert Goldman]

One thing I find myself doing over and over (and I don't think I'm alone
in this) in .asd files is to capture a pathname for the directory of the
system definition file.  This is particularly important when one has
code that wants to load data files, in the presence of FASL file
relocation (since it means that source code files can't effectively use
*load-truename*).

Bits of code like this seem like a good candidate for being added to the
ASDF API.

Any thoughts?
