On the other hand, this suggests a bug in ASDF itself and how it upgrades, that I need to investigate.

Oh, that's great — and I commend your attention to detail.

You will have them in the git repository in a few hours. compiler::*speed* is going away anyway since proclaim at al. need to work even when the "CMP" module has not been loaded, use si::*speed* instead. Also, nickname "C" for package "COMPILER" has been removed since MKCL 1.1.0 at least (too clash prone). >> I will back port to MKCL 1.1.9 the fixes I currently have in MKCL 1.2.0. >> You will have them in the git repository in a few hours. compiler::*speed* >> is going away anyway since proclaim at al. need to work even when the "CMP" >> module has not been loaded, use si::*speed* instead.

Is it OK if I don't include compatibility with older versions of MKCL? —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org Tomorrow, I stop procrastinating. _______________________________________________ Asdf-devel mailing list Asdf-devel@common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/asdf-devel
