My SBCL is at 3.1.3. I think 3.1.4 is solid enough that it should be updated there.
I've bugged SBCL hackers many time since last october, to no avail.
But remember hwo it looks like from the outside, though.
You are changing the third number, which will look like a patch to a minor revision. They probably wont bother with updating (if it's any amount of work) unless they see 3.2 or 4.0 is my guess. That's how I would think.
Actually, if I was them, I wouldn't bother updating until I saw 3.2.1! ;-)
But seriously, waiting until the first bugfixes show up doesn't work well unless *somebody* runs the initial release and tests it in actual day-to-day use.
It would be nice to figure out a way that ASDF could work nicely with the implementations so that implementors have an easy option to use the latest ASDF patch version day-to-day and see how well it plays with the latest version of the CL implementation.
