Summary: abcl-contrib is fine, but there is an issue with Maven (even
though mvn.bat is in path). Details below:

* Loading ABCL- CONTRIB:

Below is the output of my --no-init startup.  I compared my output with
yours, and I don't see anything substantially different. Loading
abcl-contrib works fine.  The ASDF version is 3.1.7.27.

* Loading QUICKLISP, CFFI, leading to Maven error

Once I load quicklisp, I try loading CFFI, where I get

; Caught SIMPLE-WARNING:
;   Unable to locate Maven executable to find Maven Aether adaptors.

mvn.bat is in my path.  I can execute it from the Command shell.  I really
poorly understand Java setup, and its environment.

Also from within ABCL:
(uiop/run-program:run-program '("where" "mvn.bat") :output :string)
"C:\\Program Files\\apache-maven-3.3.9\\bin\\mvn.bat
"
NIL
0

A few more details on how you have installed ABCL locally and how you

I don't recall how I installed it, although it was not straightforward.
For example, I extracted the startup bat file from the online repository
and formatted it so it would work.
