The former. See http://www.cliki.net/ASDF%20System
ASDF-USER is an interesting idea but I don't think it'd fly: there may
be multiple asdf systems in the same Lisp (indeed, if asdf-install really
takes off there could be loads), which may define conflicting component
types and operations. It seems to me that the package system is exactly
the right tool to resaolve this namespace issue
