Indeed, here is what I wrote into
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=393636&aid=1027814&group_id=28536
"Well, I traced the problem down to a time shift between the 
MS-Windows box running Lisp and the Linux samba server 
providing the files that I also edited there.

Nevertheless, time shifts are common, bad time stamps can 
happen and utilities such as ASDF (like make) should protect 
themselves against endless loops, as they ought to protect 
themselves against circular dependencies.

Therefore I'll leave this bugtrack item open."
