Re: 23.0.50; frozen frame after C-x 5 0

First, here's a simpler command line to reproduce my problem:

  emacs -nw -f server-start

to start the server (it's important that the server is no X emacs here)
followed by

  emacsclient

to open a new X frame.

Now I did

  $ gdb /usr/bin/emacsclient
  (gdb) run
  Starting program: /usr/bin/emacsclient 
  Waiting for Emacs...

which opened an X frame.  Then I tried closing the frame with `C-x 5 0',
but the frame didn't disappear.  Nevertheless in gdb I got the message

  Program exited normally.

When I try to run emacsclient again, I get

  (gdb) run
  Starting program: /usr/bin/emacsclient 
  Waiting for Emacs...

  Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
  0xb7f21410 in __kernel_vsyscall ()

Here's a backtrace:
