Ok, so I wrote a version of poiu (parallelizing variant of asdf) that
would use threads instead of fork, but I get random errors that look
like the symptom of race conditions -- OpenMCL's compiler is probably
not thread-safe. The fork version also had crazy errors that are
probably due to threading misconfiguration after fork.

Also, asdf-dependency-grovel is slower with openmcl than with sbcl,
even though normal compilation is 3.5 times faster.

I don't know if you can have access to the ITA code base through
Clozure, but it would be great if you could help me solve these bugs.
