Version: 23.0.60

(Filing a report for an old issue from FOR-RELEASE.)

From xterm:
./src/emacs -Q -nw --eval "(server-start)"

C-z works in the normal way to suspend Emacs.

From another xterm:

./lib-src/emacsclient -c README

Now C-z in the "emacs -nw" frame reports:

"Suspending an Emacs running under X makes no sense"

It continues to do so even after the X frame is closed.
