Sorry about the last. Wrestling with auto-correct on the iPad. The error I got WAS from using the defsystem in asdf-tools, trying to load asdf-tools into a CL REPL in SLIME. When I try to do this cl-scripting/commands depends on cl-launch/dispatch, which cannot be found by ASDF. If an ASD file must be generated from the Makefile, then ASDF *must do this without manual invocation of make*. The whole claim of the minimakefile was that the scripting could be moved to CL, and the architecture of cl-launch seems to break this. Will you please either fix cl-launch so that it can auto-run make, if that's possible, or abandon the "pristine" git checkout? Otherwise cl-launch foils the very intent of the minimakefile.
