pkill emacs
emacs -nw -Q ;; and then "m-x server-start"

In another therminal: emacsclient -nw /etc/shadow

What I would expect to see is an error that explains /etc/shadow is not
readable. But instead emacsclient hangs.

I dreamt I was running through cyberspace and had a feeling of
clear purpose and knew exactly what I was doing.  And then I broke
through a brick wall and got into the real world and felt slowly
drudging thought spacetime while having no clue.
