Maybe I could also have ASDF remember when it's inside load-sysdef
and/or defsystem, and specially treat the find-system for a defsystem
inside it? The second case promises to be tricky.

I think the control flow from defsystem to find-system to load-sysdef
is especially nasty, and I appreciate designs that would avoid
(infinite) recursion.
