Hello,
I use server-eval-at to call a function, in another daemon, which
returns a buffer. So, server-eval-at tries (read "#<buffer *foo*>")
which of course fails, and indeed signals an error.
I wonder if server-eval-at should return a special value to indicate
that the remote computation returned something that is not readably
printable? Or signal a particular error, which the caller might catch?

Hello,
Now implemented. Doesn't seem to me like a NEWS entry is warranted, but
if anyone strongly disagrees I can write one.
