No, it doesn't.

When I started sharing Quicklisp, some implementations didn't ship ASDF
at all, so it made sense to bundle a copy and load it if
necessary. ASDF2 seemed like the reasonable thing to bundle.

The feature of ASDF2 that makes Quicklisp work better is implementation
FASL segregation enabled by default.
