Re: [asdf-devel] ECL patches

Currently, when we test ECL, we do neither of these (as far as I can tell).

Would we want to make two different versions of the ECL tests, as follows:

ecl-bytecomp : first compile and load asdf, then call INSTALL-BYTECODES-COMPILER, then run the tests.

ecl : first (require :CMP), then compile and load asdf, then run tests.

Question: does this recipe FORCE us to have the right compiler for the tests?

I do not fully understand the last question. What is "the right compiler". There are simply two, which may be used interchangably without problems -- otherwise to be reported as an error.
