Sick. Does this happen consistently? I don't this problem with CLISP
2.33.2 on Debian.

The backtrace makes it look like Emacs is waiting to be told what the
local variables are, but the event trace shows that this has been
given. The "pipelined request" message is what you get when you make a
request to Lisp before the result of the previous one has arrived.

Possibly the Emacs side is failing to recognise the RPC result, but
that would be pretty extreme.
