If I'm not mistaken, the slash is a "separator" and thus not a token constituent according to RFC 2616 which means "path=/foo" is not legal input for READ-NAME-VALUE-PAIR.

Very likely Jingtao's code is calling READ-NAME-VALUE-PAIR without being wrapped in this macro
But there's still a bug in READ-NAME-VALUE-PAIR:
? (WITH-INPUT-FROM-VECTOR (S (MAP '(VECTOR (UNSIGNED-BYTE 8)) 'CHAR-CODE "path=/foo")) (chunga:with-character-stream-semantics (CHUNGA:READ-NAME-VALUE-PAIR S))) ("path" . "")

It's not quite clear to me yet what the bug is supposed to be.
The documentation clearly says that calls to READ-NAME-VALUE-PAIR and friends must be wrapped with this macro:

(You might argue that this isn't very user-friendly, but Chunga wasn't really intended to be used that way.)
