Bug Description

ABCL appears not to support DEFINE-METHOD-COMBINATION at the moment. ASDF uses this to provide both internal ASDF:AROUND methods and still permit users to provide their own :AROUND methods.

The utility of letting users define their own :around method is for things like the Stale Fasl recipe at http://www.cliki.net/asdf

The asdf:around method is used to define restarts.

If we want to get rid on the dependency on D-M-C, we can move the contents of the asdf:around method into a wrapping function do-perform that does the same then calls perform.

This was fixed in 1.636 in a low-tech way, by stopping to use define-method-combination.
ABCL support was further completed and debugged by 1.642.
