There is no provision in ASDF for ensuring that
some components are always loaded as source, while others are always
compiled.
There is load-source-op (see load-source-op),
but that is an operation to be applied to a
system as a whole, not to one or another specific source files.
While this idea often comes up in discussions,
it doesn’t play well with either the linking model of ECL
or with various bundle operations.
In addition, the dependency model of ASDF would have to be modified incompatibly
to allow for such a trick.
