To reproduce:

1. build and launch the IDE
2. Press the ESC key
3. Press any other key

Result:

Error: value NIL is not of the expected type STRUCTURE.

While executing: (:INTERNAL GUI::keyDown:|), in process Initial(0).

Type :POP to abort, :R for a list of available restarts. Type :? for other options.

After exiting from the breakloop, the IDE remains confused, expecting a keydown and breaking on any it receives.

The CLHS says: Universal time is an absolute time represented as a single non-negative integer---the number of seconds since midnight, January 1, 1900 GMT [...] Because universal time must be a non-negative integer, times before the base time of midnight, January 1, 1900 GMT cannot be processed by Common Lisp.

The right thing to do would probably be to signal a type error.

ENCODE-STRING-TO-OCTETS and DECODE-STRING-FROM-OCTETS symbols aren't exported in the CCL package. Also, if I'm not mistaken, they are lacking of documentation too. (As a side note, it'd be helpful for newcomers to assign STRING-TO-OCTETS and OCTETS-TO-STRING aliases to these functions as well.)
