It is a quoting problem.  I should have seen it before now.

The problem is that the new parameters are a glob:

ch at gato:/$ echo  [{nodelay,true},{sndbuf,16384},{recbuf,4096}]
a a a a [true,sndbuf,recbuf] [true,sndbuf,4096] [true,16384,recbuf]
[true,16384,4096]

I happen to have a directory named /a.   Billy, I would wager, happens to
have a directory name /t.

If I delete /a, it works with "cd /".
