2. $ emacsclient -c ./path/to/file
*in another terminal window*
3. $ emacsclient -c

Specifically the last line `(eql ‘,value). Removing the quote from value (i.e. `(eql ,value) ) fixed things on my end. Seems the warning was salient ;)

Thanks for confirming.  I'm thus closing this bug report.
You still have a few weeks to add a couple more clarifications of your
clarifications, of course (after which, the bug will be "archived")  ;-)
