I would be a bit careful, or at least wary, on that one.
Exfoleyation: Egypt
The experience of these guys isn't directly about nationalities on paperwork not matching but rather about names on passports not matching names on the rest of the paperwork - they were delivering a vehicle to South Africa for someone who had bought it, thus the carnet was in his name and not theirs. They had to traipse all the way to Cairo to get the carnet overtyped with their names before the Egyptians would let them in.
But one can just imagine a bloody-minded customs/immigration official somewhere obscure making an issue out of something like this - if only as an excuse to extract un petit cadeau!
