iirc, once Gary pushed a patch that removed the :force but there's
some other bug (?) somewhere else which steps in and iirc, it results
in silently not loading system connections then.
it would be nice to find that other bug, because it's also a small
annoyance that all system connections are always recompiled.

I can report that once I removed :force, everything started working for
me. I tried various random combinations of loading system but did not
find any where the connected-systems were not properly loaded. Not
having any idea where this was triggered in the past though limits the
effectiveness and I'm only trying this on SBCL 1.0.21 and linux.<br>

I found in the changelog,
<table>

<tr>
<td class="changelog-date">Sat Jan 20 17:23:11 EST 2007</td>
<td class="changelog-author">Gary King <<a
class="linkification-ext" href="mailto:gwking@metabang.com"

<tr class="changelog-row">
<td class="changelog-description" colspan="2">TAG Unrecorded the
:force t asdf patch (I'm not sure what I was thinking; thanks Attila).</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<br>
But that was the only reference I or my google-fu could produce. I
don't see anything on c-l.net mailing lists from 12/2006 or 1/2007, I
tried looking at cl-containers, asdf-*, metatilities-devel,
moptilities-devel.
