FYI, the recent updates removing and reinstating
ASDF:SYSTEM-DEFINITION-PATHNAME broke my dist construction machinery,
which relied on the original behavior of that function. Switching to
ASDF:SYSTEM-SOURCE-FILE caused subtle problems for me, because functions
in ASDF:*SYSTEM-DEFINITION-SEARCH-FUNCTIONS* must now return actual
pathname objects, and pathname designators like strings do not suffice.
(They result in a component-not-found error.)
