Thanks for your suggestions.

I tried wrapping my code in a handler, to no effect - the error must be 
occurring elsewhere.

Because I don't have a tame Apache setup to experiment with, I expended 
the rest of my effort on changing ECL itself to output a condensed error 
message. I got rid of "No restarts available" and now all I see is the 
debug prompt. I know it is the prompt because I changed it to a 
different character. If I remove that I see nothing at all.

What baffles me is that once invoke-debugger is called, I cannot see how 
it can fail to print the message associated with the condition. I 
replicated the (format t ...) used to print the prompt, and added a 
(finish-output t) - still nothing.

Yours in puzzlement and perplexity
