Nothing jumps at me from what you are describing here.
So as a matter of principle I will approach this second report as separate
problem
until it can be clearly established otherwise.
I guess I will have to simply go through the ASDF test suite on my own and
work
each problem in turn until they all get resolved. That's on my list of
things to do
in the coming hours. Until I get back to you with the fixes it is probably
not very
useful for you to keep on testing on MKCL.
But, in any case, be assured that I value your bug reports very highly.
Thanks,
Jean-Claude
