(loop named nil do (return 1)) does not establish a block at all instead of one named NIL, as I'd expect from 6.1.1.5.6: "The loop named construct gives a name for the block of the loop". There's no mention that specifying the name as NIL instead of defaulting to NIL through omission allows for the omission of the loop block.

Up-to-date linux, amdfam10, clozure 1.9 amd64 and ia32, both behave identically as far as this message is concerned. I don't know CL well, sorry, I'm just busting nil's irritatingly-anything-but-nihilistic chops.

The former seems too harsh and the latter too lenient. Raising exception seems about right, though. This crap shouldn't work either...

But it didn't even do the wrong thing right, heh, (nil) raised an error.

This ticket-reporting thing didn't allow me to specify Version 1.9, only some milestone thing.

? (string-equal :a :ba :start2 1)

Error: :start2 argument 0 exceeds :end2 argument 2

It's a simple bug. There are two references to len1 in ccl::%bounded-string-equal that should be len2.
