These are all bugs in octets= in intl.lisp. This replacement works better:
(defun octets= (a b &key (start1 0) (end1 (length a))
(start2 0) (end2 (length b)))
(declare (type (simple-array (unsigned-byte 8) (*)) a b)
(type (integer 0 #.array-dimension-limit) start1 end1 start2 end2)
(optimize (speed 3) (space 2) (safety 0) #-gcl (debug 0)))
(when (and (< start1 end1)
(< start2 end2))
(loop
(unless (= (aref a start1) (aref b start2)) (return nil))
(when (or (= (incf start1) end1) (= (incf start2) end2)) (return
t)))))
