Without digging deeper, it seems to me that there is an outer deadline from another WITH-DEADLINE. In the old version you're using :OVERRIDE, which means that even if you specify a longer wait, you get what you ask for.
In the new version the outer WITH-DEADLINE specifies a shorter wait than the :TIMEOUT you request, and that happens -- and a deadline-timeout is signalled, etc.
Is WITH-DEADLINE part of the official API? Seriously?
