Indeed, the problem is that standard-display-table is set by
startup--setup-quote-display when the daemon starts and it is used for
all terminals.

This model seems wrong. An Emacs server can have several terminals. We
need a substitution table (an standard-display-table) for each terminal,
don't we?

BTW, as a quick workaround, setting standard-display-table to nil solves
the problem.
