I am so incredibly touched!

When I was hacking, suddenly HE looketh at me directly out of the
do-list. Right to 'in-common' and 'vertex-sides' His Noodely
Highness, the FSM, appeared:

---%<----------------------------------------
(do* ((vertex (pop verts-iter)
(pop verts-iter))
(vertex-length (length vertex)
(length vertex))
(in-common 0 0)
(vertex-sides ()()))

((null verts-iter)) ; this loop is for side effects only.

(dolist (previous-side previous-sides)
---%<----------------------------------------

Let us praise all future REPLs which surely will serve us well, as from
now on they are all touched by His Noodely Appendages.

Yes. And now the source is with us, too.

OK. But that describes only a dream, but what I've experienced was real.

It was as if HE wanted to tell me:

"Son I'm talking to thee out of thy do-list.
I've chosen the do-list because do* macroexpands into a tagbody,
and a tagbody contains go,
and go produces spaghetti.
Son, thou shalt RTHS more thoroughly and have a look at union."

And so I looked at f_unionc.htm and I found

"The result list may be eq to either list-1 or list-2 if appropriate."

So I became enlighted, and I replaced
(sort (union vertex-side vertex) #'<)
by
(sort (copy-list (union vertex-side vertex)) #'<)
and now the test-case runs smoothly without error.

Praise thy Noodely Appendages and thy wisdom!
