Can you please try to debug it?

First try:

emacs -Q --daemon

and then try to see if 

emacsclient -t

works.  If it doesn't please try to debug it.
If it does please try to debug why:

emacsclient -c 

crashes emacs. 

If nobody looks at this, I will disable the --daemon code for the
nextstep port before the release.
