ASDF on GCL was working at some point during the 2.7.0 non-release streak, though I had to disable a few UIOP features and many tests, and the bug reports and feature requests I sent to the maintainer went unanswered.
I didn't try 2.7.0 since it wasn't quite ANSI. 2.7.1 is supposed to be much closer and does pass the ansi-test suite that's included with gcl.
Camm has been around more lately and has helped getting maxima to run with 2.7.1.

I think ASDF on GCL was broken before the latest 2.7.1 release, so we probably do not have to conditionalize the changes on the GCL release version.

If you look at run-tests.sh, https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/asdf/asdf/-/blob/master/test/run-tests.sh?ref_type=heads#L535-537 , the test script tests for GCL and should short-cut this exact test. That error messages comes out of test/script-support.lisp, in |compile-asdf-script|. I'd suggest you put some reader conditional around that call to |leave-test| to quash failure and see how much further you get.

I had to make a small change in uiop/os.lisp to use `system::chdir`, the internal symbol instead of the external symbol. (Not sure if that's really correct, but it does work from the repl.) This seems to allow asdf.lisp to be compiled. The next step was running `make l=gcl GCL=<path>/gcl-2.7.1/bin/gcl test`. However this fails with the message: > Testsuite failed: ASDF compiled with unexpected full warnings There are a few warnings from the compiler. However, I'd like to see how far I can get without fixing the compiler warnings. Is that possible? I just don't want to spend a lot of time fixing compiler warnings if there are more serious issues that are exposed by the testsuite.
