Thank you for explaining this example. I had a gut feeling that there
would be some hidden correlation between some octal/hexadecimal
combinations, but I couldn't name it. Indeed, if the number base for
output is hexadecimal, the field comparisons should be done in
hexadecimal as well.

I adjusted the description and examples in the manual page accordingly.
