From: Reuben Thomas <rrt <at> sc3d.org>

Subject: 24.4; emacsclient -n doesn't seem to work with -e
Date: Thu, 07 May 2015 10:04:59 +0100

If an expression to evaluate is supplied to emacsclient, then even with
-n, emacsclient waits for the expression to be evaluated.

(This may be intended behavior, in which case the fix would be simply to
document it.)
