<p dir="auto">This discussion makes me worried that <code style="margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0.25em; border-radius: 3px; background-color: #F7F7F7;">if-feature</code> dependencies may not function properly in ASDF. AFAIK ASDF still relies only on the file system to determine whether a file needs recompilation. But changing feature values are not, in general, visible in the file system. So I believe that use of <code style="margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0.25em; border-radius: 3px; background-color: #F7F7F7;">:if-feature</code> could cause ASDF to fail to recompile files when it should.</p>

<p dir="auto">If anyone has time to check my work on this, I would be grateful.</p>
<p dir="auto">We may need to project feature state into the filesystem in order to fix this problem.</p>

Resistance is futile. You will be jazzimilated.</p>
