I couldn't reproduce this: loading the current version of asdf.lisp was
uneventful in the released 0.14-030901 (or anything relatively recent.)

Welcome to OpenMCL Version (Alpha: Darwin) 0.14-030901!
? (load "/usr/local/src/asdf/asdf.lisp")
#P"/usr/local/src/asdf/asdf.lisp"
? asdf:*asdf-revision*
(1 77)
?

I wouldn't want to claim that there isn't a CLOS defining macro somewhere
that needs to be more careful about EVAL-WBEN clauses in its expansion,
but if such a bug exists this doesn't seem to be a way of provoking it.

(I don't have a good guess as to why this failed for you.)
