It's just my hypothesis. We can use your patch first. >> I hope your patch can be merged into master, but since I don't have >> uploading permission, I also need you sponsor c-l-c and cl-asdf >> (dependency of c-l-c).

(it's has no rc bugs) Because c-l-c repo code depends on cl-asdf 2:2.010-1, it's on mentors. If you don't upload cl-asdf, please do a NMU. I'll merge your patch.
