Subject: [BUG] SBCL, GNU CLISP, and ASDF

Per this[1] conversation on IRC, there is an issue with ASDF being
installed for SBCL while using GNU CLISP. It seems that when sbcl
libraries are installed, there are also some files created in
/etc/common-lisp/ that, by default, cause /any/ implementation of Common
Lisp using ASDF to prefer the SBCL libraries.

This can currently be worked around using an init file[2], but this is
not a user-friendly situation. I am looking into a possible solution,
but wanted to report the bug now in case someone else has more
experience than me.
