Well, this I really do not understand. The problem with output-files
is the following. When ASDF finds out that an operation returns a
non-nil value of output-files, it will only perform it if the
output-file is not present, or the input-files of this operation have
changed since the last time it was performed. The change to
output-files when applied to compile-op is trivial in the sense that
we are simply changing the extension of the file from .fas to .o. I do
not understand why ASDF is now sort of "complaining" about this.
