Yeah, that's Cells-I, and just happens to be the version used by a web
app I wrote for a client (how convenient).  Cello has never been
asdf-install'able.

At the moment, you should check it out of cvs.  Making the
cell-cultures projects installable piecemeal will involve more hacking
on asdf-aclproj because their interdependencies are specified with
relative pathnames, rather than symbolically.  Unless someone has a
need to use asdf-install instead of cvs, I'll wait on this until
either Cello is generally usable on OS X, or I get around to finishing
Spider-Cell (a library to make Araneida Cells-friendly).

Kenny uses the Allegro IDE, I use SBCL, so the asdf-related stuff is
my fault.
