As Daniel Herring hinted, one way you can solve this problem is to setup asdf:*central-registry* such that UFFI's uffi.asd takes precedence over the clbuild/systems/uffi.asd one. Would that work for you?

I use an automated mechanism to setup my asdf:*central-registry* and it would be a pain if I had to change that. I find it offensive if some library decides that it is "better" than something else and makes that something else unusable or harder to use.

In my own private copy cffi, I have renamed CFFI"s uffi.asd to uffi-compat.asd. I'd recommend that this'd be done in the upstream version, too.
