Could ABCL set up a #P"SRC:", or #P"SYS:SRC:" logical pathname to the source directory that was used for the build?
I've committed an implementation of logical pathname translations for SYS:SRC and SYS:JAVA [in r12514][1]. SYS:SRC translates to the root of the Lisp files, while SYS:JAVA translates to the root of the Java tree.

Yeah, but (translate-logical-pathname "SYS:SRC;boot.lisp") works, right? As far as I understand logical pathnames (admittedly not a huge distance), your form shouldn't work, as (probe-file #p"SYS:SRC") fails on SBCL. -- "A screaming comes across the sky. It has happened before, but there is nothing to compare to it now."
