So that could get UNCACHED_REP as the response.  But if you're very
unlucky, couldn't this also happen?:

	1) the compound previously sent on that slot was processed by
	the server and cached
	2) the compound you're sending now happens to have the same set
	of operations

with the result that the client doesn't detect that the reply was
actually to some other rpc, and instead it returns bad data to the
application?
