The debug 'full_twisted_stacktraces' flag caused synapse to rewrite twisted deferreds to always fire the callback on the next reactor tick. This was to force the deferred to always store the stacktraces on exceptions, and thus be more likely to have a full stacktrace when it reaches the final error handlers and gets printed to the logs. Dynamically rewriting things is generally bad, and in particular this change violates assumptions of various bits of Twisted. This wouldn't necessarily be so bad, but it turns out this option has been turned on on some production servers. Turning the option can cause e.g. #1778. For now, lets just entirely nuke this option.
