I saw a similar comment in builtin-commands.lisp. However, there's something else going on, I suspect, because while the OS X binary running under Apple X11 exhibits this double-RET problem, the same binary displaying on Xorg on my workstation (tunnelled over ssh) does not have the same problem.
(I think the XXX comment doesn't apply in any case, because the EXPRESSION presentation type we ACCEPT in the listener has :PRESERVE-WHITESPACE T in its options. Still, it's possible that something in there is causing a problem...)
