Hm.  And we have to have the asdf *tree* in the source-registry instead
of only having the asdf *directory* in there because of the separation
of uiop.asd and asdf.asd.

Is there some reason we can't move uiop.asd up to a position next to
asdf.asd?

That seems like a much more pleasant solution than restructuring the
repo to make the test and asdf source directories siblings instead of
child/parent.
