Two additional pieces of information I forgot:

* I can reproduce this with 'emacs -q'.

* Instead of the xkill in step (4), if you launch emacsclient -c over
  an ssh session, you can kill the ssh session, or break the network
  connection. (This is how I first encountered this, since I use a
  laptop and run emacs on a server)
