	Emacs freezes when using the emacs server, and exiting from a child
	frame
Date: Tue, 26 Feb 2013 16:09:01 -1000

I'm running a very recent dev build of emacs. I'm observing that emacs
goes into an infinite loop, eats up all available CPU cycles, and
becomes unresponsive if I do the following:

1. emacs -Q --daemon ( this starts the daemon, and goes back to the
   shell )
2. emacsclient -c -a '' ( connect a client )
3. C-x 5 2 ( make new child frame )
4. C-x C-c ( kill emacs )

When using the emacs server, C-x C-c kills the current emacs client,
leaving the server intact to allow more clients to connect later. This
apparently doesn't work right if done from a child frame first.
