I can confirm this: I get the same error.  Here's what I find
mysterious: when I am in the debugger, I can call the ASDF:OUTPUT-FILES
method on COMPILE-OP and the asdf source file, which seems to be what's
yielding the error:


0] (asdf:find-component (asdf:find-system "asdf") "asdf")

#<ASDF:CL-SOURCE-FILE "asdf" "asdf">
0] (defvar *c* *)

*C*
0] (asdf:output-files (make-instance 'asdf:compile-op) *c*)

(#P"/Users/rpg/.cache/common-lisp/cmu-snapshot-2012-04__20c_unicode_-macosx-x86/Users/rpg/lisp/asdf/asdf.sse2f")
T
0]

Faré, is there any chance this is an error that happens when ASDF is
replacing itself, i.e., upgrade rather than just build?

When I compile asdf from new (using COMPILE-FILE and LOAD), although I
get the unreachable code warnings, ASDF compiles and loads, which
suggests a possible upgrade issue.
