Isn't it true that the correct Calvinist answer is "Nothing. You can't do anything to be saved!" If so, then, if Paul was the Calvinist that all the GRPL seems to say he was, then why didn't Paul answer: "Nothing. There's nothing you can do to be saved!"?

The correct Calvinist response to the Jailer, "What must I do to be saved?" is "Repent and believe on the Lord Jesus and you shall be saved." It's a statement, not a plea.

If the Holy Spirit is working on the Jailer's heart, he will receive the words in faith that God has already given him and turn to God. If the Holy Spirit has not worked on the Jailer's heart, he will reject the message and turn away. The Christian shrugs their shoulders and move on knowing that God leads those who He will to repentence.

Then it looks like Paul must have goofed. Oh well, nobody's perfect.

Absolutely right. We are also told that after Paul said what he said, then they ministered to the jailer and his family. I don't think we need to take any great leap of faith to suppose that Paul covered repentance during that ministering, and before the jailer believed.
