RFC 5661 specifies that error as:

  The requester has attempted a retry of a Compound that it previously
  requested not be placed in the reply cache.

which to me doesn't imply a positive action here.  But I'm not an
expert at reply cache semantics, so I'll leave others to correct me.
But please add a more detailed comment and commit log as this is
completely unintuitive.
