For path configuration, if I get my way with ASDF, you could "just"
include an updated ASDF with a proper
/etc/common-lisp/source-registry.conf with the CLC installation. See
http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/asdf-devel/2009-December/000580.html

> - - make the inclusion of the CLC directory configurable
What about making it configurable through a normal ASDF-wide
configuration file? i.e. my proposed change above.

> - - add clbuild support to the package:
cl-build integration sounds great. I haven't thought about the
details, but you should probably send a pre-announce to the clbuild
mailing-list.

I'd like the patch that fixes this bug to be merged in next CLC:
