Ok, I went ahead and opened a CCL bug, which was (almost immediately)
reported as fixed in the subversion trunk and the ticket (#1109) was
closed. Then I built a CCL from the trunk (which is 1.10-dev), and indeed
this failure goes away when using 1.10-dev. See the results in the
2013-09-05 folder in the link below.

I tried changing the code in uiop/run-program.lisp from:

  #+clozure (cons "cmd" (strcat "/c" command))

to

   #+clozure (list "cmd" (strcat "/c" command))


but still get some failures in test-run-program.script. Maybe they are
different failures.  See results below.

By the way, the run-program tests seem to use the command "ln" for testing
-- this command isn't there by default on Windows, is it?



The issue with ";" vs. ":" for path separator I'm not sure exactly where to
fix, so I leave that alone for the time being (anyone else care to jump on
it?) --- apparently that's not CCL-specific, but a general Windows asdf
testing issue?
