CCL 1.8 on Mac OS X fails to compile asdf as pulled just now.

Interactively, interestingly, when I try to build from an asdf:*central-registry* with home:lisp;asdf; in it, I get this error:
Error while trying to load definition for system asdf from pathname home:lisp;asdf;asdf.asd.newest: Illegal logical namestring "/Users/rpg/lisp/asdf/asdf.asd" [Condition of type ASDF:LOAD-SYSTEM-DEFINITION-ERROR]
No idea what that's about. When I use /Users/rpg/lisp/asdf/ instead, it works fine.
Whoa. Something funky is happening. Mind the "logical". Something quite illogical is happening as the result of an attempted merge of pathnames with a logical pathname, presumably the home: thing.
Can you explain me how logical pathnames are used on your machine and in your ASDF configuration?
It's quite possible that I may have gotten some host defaulting mixed up somewhere.
PS: I've exploded asdf into bits. See branch exploded on git.
