Subject: bug#17014: 24.3; Emacsclient freezes if mutt attaches a signature

From: Walter Garcia-Fontes <[email-masked]>

I use emacs in mutt. For some of my mails I have a hook in mutt that
attaches a signature to the mail:

send-hook [email-masked] "set signature=/home/wgarcia/.signature.bulma"

I call emacs from mutt with the following command:

set editor="emacsclient -a \"\" -t"

If I have an emacs daemon running and I have an attached emacsclient
running, the emacsclient opened by mutt freezes, and it also makes 
all other emacsclient opened freeze too. If I open emacsclient but mutt
does not try to attach a signature it does not freeze. 

I attach a stacktrace that I produced the following way:

1) I opened the daemon and attached an emacsclient.
2) I opened mutt, and produced the freeze
3) I opened gdb and "add-inferior" emacsclient
4) I runned emacsclient in gdb and produced the trace.
