Due to the readtable bug in ASDF 3.3.0 I updated the "syntax-control" branch that for the last three years was supposed to solve all readtable bugs when building with ASDF.
I merged 3.3.0.1 into the branch, but the branch itself is not ready for merging into master: it does either too much or too little, and must be either completed or simplified. I think it stands a better chance of bieng merged soon if it is simplified, so I re-read and re-wrote the documentation for what this branch should be doing, and detailed a "Proposal 1" for minimal changes to ASDF that would go a long way towards bringing sanity in builds of software that modify the syntax.
I sollicit your feedback: https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/asdf/asdf/blob/syntax-control/doc/syntax-cont...
