while i was unable to reproduce this specific error (it looks like
asdf/asdf.lisp isn't getting loaded) i did get errors regarding
trivial-sockets. there are a couple of things i needed to change in
trivial-sockets, until i can talk to dan and see about merging these
into the 'main' trivial-sockets (some of the patches are of debatable
quality) i've created a temporary repo and the boxset uses that
instead of the one on versions.telent.net (gotta love run-on
sentences).

my only suggestion atm is to get the tarball again (i just regenerated
it) and see if you problem still persists. if it does, and it's still
the asdf issue, try to figure out what happens when the first form of
load-asdf.lisp (the auto-generated file) is executed and why that
doesn't in fact load asdf. maybe we sholud do #+sbcl (require :asdf)
#-sbcl (load asdf/asdf.lisp) or something in load-asdf.lisp...
