Kevin,
Huge is inside the firewall, so it doesn't take mail. The reply to
header should have been just "[email protected]" even though the "from" has
the real (invisible to the outside world) host. I should probably
update the MX record, but this is a rare problem. We'll see if I
fixed it for this message.

I wouldn't signal a missing file error if file-write-date comes back
nil, since there might be other reasons other than a missing file that
file-write-date returns nil (at least that would be compatible with
the spec). It might be worth signaling an error about being unable to
determine the file write date, though, since you're probably out of
luck if ASDF can't figure that out.

This doesn't work for me because I might have mixed extensions within
a single project. For example, the project that threw this error in
the first place uses a file that I got from Franz that has a ".cl"
extension, along with my own files, which I habitually give ".lisp"
extensions. I don't really care whether what exactly the stock
behavior is, but I think there really ought to be support for multiple
extensions within a single project. The modest suggestion I made
previously seems like a small patch to allow this reasonable extension
to the stock system.
