I don't observe it here, which gopher plugin are you using and which 
commit?

You can likely invoke it manually with:

$ dpidc stop
$ dpid &
$ key=$(cat ~/.dillo/dpid_comm_keys | cut -d " " -f2)
$ url="gopher://tilde.pink/1/~bencollver/log/2026-01-04-m1-macro-processor-retreat/readme.map"
$ echo "<cmd='auth' msg='$key' '><cmd='open_url' url='$url' '>\n" |\
   ~/.dillo/dpi/gopher/gopher.filter.dpi

Perhaps using strace or gdb may help.

Best,
Rodrigo.
