Most of it seems to be harmless, although some of the messages
are the result of bugs.

This is probably because the client tries to send more "east" commands
than the server can use. This is one of the harmless messages
resulting from bugs ("keyboard" doesn't work, since it doesn't turn
off keyboard buffering --- the message looks like the result of a
buffer overflow).

AFAICS this has something to do with the buggy inventory display.
