OK, we'll leave consideration of that for stage two :-). > For now, I would ask you to consider defining your own methods over > asdf:output-files, which enables you to say where particular types of > output should go.

I'm busy thinking about the best way to generate intermediate file names - I'm not sure if using random filenames is a good idea because for rebuilds I would have to store the original random mappings. Doable, but a bit of a pain. Once I've got that, it should be just a case of implementing all the perform methods. It would be nice to bootstrap Boot without having to dump a core - I'll have to play around a little and see what the hurdles are. Without that, asdf can't build the entire Axiom from scratch in one shot as far as I can tell - dumping core files ends a session. Hmm.
