I'm chewing on the "gone insane" remark. Since I'm tagging a few nits in
other spots: perhaps this comment could explain in more specific detail
why the server cannot trust this CB_SEQUENCE response. Maybe:

 /*
  * Call succeeded, but the session, slot index, or slot
  * sequence number in the response do not match the same
  * in the server's call. The sequence information is thus
  * untrustworthy.
  */

That's wordy, but you get the idea. Even better if we can find some
relevant spec language.
