[Asdf-devel] :FORCE

In the discussion of CLEAR-SYSTEM, I see the following parenthetical:

(It was once conceived that one should provide
a list of systems the recompilation of which to force
as the @code{:force} keyword argument to @code{load-system};
but this has never worked, and though the feature was fixed in ASDF 2.000,
it remains @code{cerror}'ed out as nobody ever used it.)

Is that correct?

I thought that :FORCE *did* accept these?  I'm commenting this out for now.
