Re: [asdf-devel] always load/compile from sources.

Sorry, why should that definition fix the problem? I.e., what is it about compiling the file from source that ensures that swank will be loaded, when loading the FASL doesn't?

The #+swank in the source file.

I mean, I expect the #+swank in the source file to disable the dependency on swank when it is not present.

Notice that using #+swank (:file "swank-stuff") in the ASD file, works to disable loading swank-stuff, but since now I have to put #+swank (call-swank-stuff) in the other files, I still have the same problem: I need to erase the fasl in .cache/common-lisp and recompile everything when I need to switch between swank and non-swank targets.
