[slime-devel] own thread versus repl thread

On my remote slime,

(slime-eval (list 'swank:eval-and-grab-output (format "%s" '*package*)))

returns:

("" "#<PACKAGE \"COMMON-LISP-USER\">")

and on my local slime, it returns:

("" "#<PACKAGE \"ELEPHANT-USER\">")

But in both cases, I am in the :elephant-user package on the REPL.
What's the story?  I thought that the combo of functions used here was
always going to evaluate its arguments on the same thread that is used
in the REPL?
