Well, as the manual says:
-- Macro: expect clause ...
[...] The procedures
are called in turn after each character is read from the port,
[...]
The test is successful if the procedure returns a non-false value.
Your lambda returns *unspecified*, which counts as a non-false value.
So the whole (expect ...) invocation completes after reading just one
character.
