I think it is safe (shouldn't interfere with any other implementations use of ASDF), but this use of *FEATURES* at *run-time* instead of the conventional use at compile-time makes me feel a little uncomfortable. It feels to me like an abuse of a facility.
Right now this is how my two compilers expose their presence to their users. I do not see how this could be an abuse and why further variables are needed. Besides, this is ECL's design, not ASDF's.
OK. But why do you need to do (member :foo *features*) instead of #+foo ? That was the original question. thanks, r
