I fear that will not do what you want:

NIL

The RC there for some reason is breaking the match:

R> (asdf:version-satisfies "3.1.2" "3.1.2")

This smells to me like a bug in ASDF:VERSION-SATISFIES, but we won't be
able to get a fix into ASDF in time to let this work for QL + CFFI.

Is there some reason you can't just bump x.y.z to x.y.z.xx :version in
your cffi.asd file and push that?
