Sorry.  I'm still confused.

1.  I thought there was portable-asdf-install and sbcl asdf-install, but 
this page doesn't talk about that.  Have the two been fused?

2.  Any chance of smashing the ASDF-INSTALL decoy CVS repository?  Seems 
like it's only raison d'etre is to fool people like me into using 
bitrotted code....

Failing that, how about putting a (WARN ...) form into the asdf system 
definition for asdf-install in the CCLAN CVS repository so that people 
who have an up-to-date cvs checkout will know they are using deprecated 
code?

As an aside, darcs is busted on Mac OSX tiger, at least with fink :-(

I kin probably do a git mirror for myself....

Best,
r
