Very strange. I don't see anything like that here. Did you run
emacsclient on the same machine where the Emacs server runs, or over a
network?

If you revert the changes in that commit, does the problem go away?
(Please disregard the changes in gdb-mi.el, they are unrelated.) If
it does, can you try reverting each hunk separately, and tell which
one has the most effect?
Thanks.
