Also, we did a lot of testing of ASDF on Quicklisp thanks to Anton Vodonosov, and most implementations already have a more recent ASDF than that. But yeah, of course, if something breaks, the rational thing to do is to revert, and not to either report or fix a bug in any of the software at stake. Or is it? So much the better. I just saw a note by Zach that something broke, but clearly it was something else, and me reading sloppily. Thanks for setting it straight, Faré.

Didier, would you mind posting a GitLab issue for this? It's feasible, but I'm so overloaded right now that there's no chance I will get to it before I forget.

Yup, that's what I did locally, with recent versions of all compilers I have. Those shipping with ASDF seem to all have 3.2.0 at least now, but I was a bit curious as to when exactly the issues were fixed, and too lazy to investigate the change logs by myself ;-) -- ¡En Seguida! -- New album: https://www.didierverna.com/records/en-seguida.php Available on all digital platforms now!

Considering that SBCL upgraded to 3.1.5 in July 2015, I think you should be pretty safe assuming that your users' ASDF is more recent than 3.1.4. What more, even Xach seems to have miraculously seen the light: one months and one week ago, he updated the fallback ASDF in Quicklisp from 2.26 to 3.2.1!
