Description
Evaluation of incomplete-gamma-tail is very slow near the negative real axis. For (incomplete-gamma-tail 1/2 #c(-100 1d0)), we get an answer quickly. But replace that with #q(#q-100 #q1) and Oct now takes a long time. Change it to #q1q-1 instead of #q1, and Oct takes forever.
It's stuck in computing the continued fraction in CF-INCOMPLETE-TAIL which isn't valid on the negative real axis.

This appears to have been fixed at some point. It's no longer slow for this test case.
