<p dir="auto">Wow! Holy stale complications, batman!</p>
<p dir="auto">Robert apparently suggested something (apparently) much simpler in</p>

<p dir="auto">"From ASDF's perspective," this is all new to me, since it was filed as a bug against Quicklisp, and as far as I know, never raised as an issue for ASDF. I could use some help here:</p>
<ol>
<li value="1">What's a minimal error case using <code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0 0.4em" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">quickload</code> alone?</li>
<li value="2">What's a minimal case that arises with using ASDF as the entry point? It seemed like there was one where if Quicklisp is up and running, and you use <code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0 0.4em" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">asdf:load-system</code> to load a system, this can also happen.</li>
</ol>
<p dir="auto">Something I can type into a REPL verbatim is what I would like to see.</p>
<p dir="auto">Also, sounds like though this is an issue on all lisps, not just ABCL as the first post suggested</p>
<p dir="auto">Communications between ASDF and QL have been difficult since Zach dropped off this list (and, to be fair, I have never joined up to read quicklisp-devel, if there is such a thing).</p>
