(sb-thread:make-thread (lambda () (format t "hello world")))

on the REPL I get something like #<SB-THREAD:THREAD FINISHED values: NIL {A72C609}>

but the "hello world" part goes to the --dribble-file on the remote machine. Is it possible to have that on the REPL too?

You could bind the output stream lexically:

CL-USER> (let ((s *standard-output*)) (sb-thread:make-thread (lambda () (format s "hello world")))) #<SB-THREAD:THREAD RUNNING {15833191}> hello world CL-USER>

Alternatively you could set swank:*globally-redirect-io* or swank:*default-worker-thread-bindings*.
