cffi-grovel processes cl-libuv's grovel.lisp, produces a C file, compiles it with cc, runs the resulting executable to produce a Lisp file which is then compiled and loaded. That Lisp file is what contains a defctype form that defines the libuv::size-t type which is then referenced by the next file in cl-libuv.asd.
The ASDF integration bits for the cffi-grovel component are in cffi/grovel/asdf.lisp. Maybe some tracing and/or print debugging there can provide a clue.
