--text follows this line--
Using follow-delete-other-window-and-split in 'emacsclient -c' will stop the
ability to use emacsclient again.

Reproduce in the followin way:

  emacs -Q
     M-x server-start
  emacsclient -c filename
     M-x follow-delete-other-window-and-split
  emacsclient -c filename  <<<  this will hang

After the last line you see the message

  Waiting for Emacs... 

but no window will be raise. the message is clearly different from the
message you would get it the server was not there in which case it
clearly states it canno find the socket.

This is reproducible under Ubuntu 12.04/12.10.

Thanks. I see this is in 24.1 and 24.2, but not on the current emacs-24
branch, so it seems to have been fixed.
