I retested the minimal with starting emacs using "emacs --daemon -Q"
and emacsclient using "emacsclient -c".  The results are the same.
After 5 cycles there is the momentary appearence of the X-window frame,
then both emacs and emacsclient processes have exited.

They were in there as leftovers from my old setup where I want
emacsclient to go to a particular socket and start emacs automatically
if there is not a daemon running already.
