As for upgrade tests, I have the following failures:

Sounds good. What's the bug, BTW? Is it something we can FMAKUNBOUND our way around, or is it just hopeless?
Thanks for rechecking this.
I traced that down to my own cmucl installation; it was an ancient installation with an ancient ASDF, so upgrading from the require'd one failed, which was stopping the upgrade tests. I tried with the latestest cmucl snapshot, but it's broken (from a few days ago), so I tried with the previous snapshot instead, from december, and all tests passed, including all upgrade tests (back to 3.0.1 only). The breakage is in upgrading from ASDF 2.32 or earlier, due to redefinition of the the superclasses of system.
So, everything's fine, after all (except the latest cmucl snapshot — I sent mail to the maintainer about that).
I'm restoring the cmucl upgrade tests.
