I'm not entirely sure about this.  Here's my question: if someone is
developing code in one of those modules, and wants to see if it messes
up ASDF development, might they want to override this to point to
private copies of some or all of the dependencies? In that case, maybe I
should leave it around....

This would also be a place to test your new quicker-loading option.

Very much open to suggestions.
