[asdf-install-devel] Ugh. CLISP, files, pathnames.

[Dan Muller]

Boy did I make a mistake this evening. I tried running the unit tests
with CLISP (the Cygwin variant, although I don't think that matters).

So, Gary, after beating my head against tests/utilities for a couple
of hours, I'm left wondering: Why did you remove the use of CL-FAD
from the unit tests?

DELETE-DIRECTORY-AND-FILES and its supporting methods are onerous to
get working with CLISP because of its bizarrely strict interpretation
of PROBE-FILE and DELETE-FILE, its limited support of :WILD-INFERIORS,
and its frequent intolerance of :UNSPECIFIC.

I would have thought that CL-FAD had already dealt with most of
this. Did you have problems with it?
