Related bug:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/asdf/+bug/545390

Wasn't there a bug where we said "we should not make people implement
conditional branching by means of exception handling" (which is really
what :if-component-dep-fails is used for)?  I couldn't find it...  If
there isn't one, we should probably add such as an enhancement.  Saying

(:when ....)

is probably a lot better than trying to grok an :if-component-dep-fails
policy....

cheers,
