Yes, perfectly understood about the test case.  At this point I was just
trying to see if this problem sounded familiar to anyone.  If I can
generate an isolated test case, I certainly will.

In the meantime, David Lichteblau wrote me the following that may help:
- ----
CL+SSL is known to be broken on Allegro with a failure mode like this.
I can only guess why, but since Allegro already includes SSL support,
perhaps there is some kind of conflict between the two FFI uses.

I think the workaround Edi used in his libraries was to do
  #+allegro (excl:make-ssl-client-stream ...)
  #-allegro (cl+ssl:make-ssl-client-stream ...)
but if the problem stays unsolved, it would be better to move this kind
of hack into CL+SSL itself, so that it wraps the built-in streams on
Allegro instead of doing things itself.

Unfortunately I don't really have the time for CL+SSL development at the
moment, but patches are always welcome, of course.
- ----

I'll see what I can do about producing some code that gets past this.

- -Jason
