You're in luck: ASDF 3.2.0's new uiop:launch-program supports running
asynchronously and getting the process ID — at least if you run on
SBCL and other good implementations.

And you only need that on the master Lisp that launches the other
subprocesses, so it doesn't have to work on all platforms.

NB: If you're not using it yet, you might be interested in the
lisp-invocation library.
