Has there been any more progress on this front, since 11 August? That was the last email I saw on the subject.
Dave and I had a brief conversation about it at ILC 2014. My advice was to modify test-bundle.script and not bother with subprocesses, just with detecting side-effects in a .asd file (defpackage or defparameter), and undoing it (if needed) before the next test: compare the situation before and after making the bundle, undo effects; compare the situation before and after loading the bundle, undo effects; mark the systems immutable, touch for modification; compare the situation before and after trying to update. Repeat the test without marking the system immutable.
