FWIW, it's important to point out that this is not on the near horizon, 
so it is not a substitute for the use of ASDF-install.

Personally, since I use Allegro at least as much as SBCL, and because I 
don't use SBCL-style assumptions about library locations, I find 
ASDF-install much more comfortable than clbuild, which seems like the 
only short-horizon alternative (besides using the revision control 
systems, which doesn't work terribly well when there are cross-library 
dependencies).  If I get back to using CFFI, I'll have a whack at making 
it work again with asdf-install.

best,
