I'm experimenting with your changes now but, for some reason that I don't understand, when I run the tests as `make l=ecl` interactively on Ubuntu (using the Ubuntu ECL package `16.1.2-3`), signals are throwing me into the interactive debugger, instead of being caught. I have no idea why this started happening, because I used to be able to run ECL successfully, and I don't believe I have changed the package (although Ubuntu might have upgraded it).

Actually /usr/bin/ecl is crashing with SIGABRT when running programs, apparently, on my Ubuntu box. (`SIGABRT in si_run_program()`). I'll try uninstalling and reinstalling ECL in the hopes that fixes this, but unless I get some help, I will not be able to continue testing ASDF on ECL on Linux.

No, I don't think so. The sockets module has been part of ECL since
version 0.9f from 2005. Please note, that this test can fail anyway if
ECL is built without support for the respective module (be it :rt or
:sockets). The change only prevents it from failing on a default build
configuration.

Thank you very much for these, Marius. I will look into fixing them
directly. One question - do I need to check for ECL version number when
requiring sockets in the test? I.e., to I need to test with |:rt| in
older versions and |:sockets| in newer? Or will |:sockets| work in older
versions of ECL, as well?

Best,

    Harmless in the sense that ECL doesn't crash or throw me in the
interactive debugger. Besides, the test failures seem to be easily fixed. The test-require.script test fails because it tries to require the :rt module which is deprecated on the develop branch and no longer build by default. A simple fix is to use the :sockets module instead:

The test-program.script test seems to fail to include uiop because of an
    error in the linkable-system function. Tracing it shows that the
    function returns nil for the uiop system object,

            I can't reproduce this, for me the tests run fine without

No test failure is harmless. The test-program.script failure is what Robert saw, that I can reproduce. I didn't reproduce a failure with test-require. I had more problems with ECL from the develop branch,
        but maybe it was a bad idea to use the develop branch.
