Argh. I misinterpreted the name and didn't read carefully enough. I was thinking of deferred-warnings as a thing that happens, rather than as an ASDF feature. My bad. I should copy this test out to a disabled-deferred-warnings.script. > >>>> This suggested some conjectures: >>>> >>>> 1.

Hmmm... I will check again. In the past, what was happening for me on ACL was that I was seeing a large number of bogus UNDEFINED-FUNCTION warnings. But maybe I'm confusing ENABLE-DEFERRED-WARNINGS with an earlier version where we moved the W-C-U's around. I will recheck against a large system with a lot of forward-referenced functions. More philosophical musings I'll have to defer.... cheers, r _______________________________________________ Asdf-devel mailing list Asdf-devel@common-lisp.net http://mailman.common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/asdf-devel
