[asdf-devel] ASDF shipped with the latest Quicklisp-client doesn't work on Allegro CL 8.1

[Faré]

Dear Xiaofeng,

assuming it's indeed a bug in allegro 8.1's compile-file-pathname,
can you try to edit the call to compile-file-pathname this way,
in defun compile-file-pathname* ?

 (apply 'compile-file-pathname input-file
                      (remove-keys `(#+(and allegro (not (version>= 8
2))) :external-format
                                       ,@(unless output-file
'(:output-file))) keys))
