Do you have thoughts about what's too old a version of ABCL to worry abou=
t?

I have some notes in the tests that cause test skipping if ABCL is older =
than 1.3, which seems like chaff that I could get rid of.

Considering possibly updating the ASDF tests to just puke once at the beg=
inning for ancient implementation versions, to avoid lots of this cruft.
