As far as I can tell, none of that has changed ever since --eval was
added to emacsclient. So please describe clearly the behavior you used
to see with emacsclient.

Until a few mponths ago, emacsclient never got the tty. Were you using
the multi-tty branch? That emacsclient had a different argument
convention, incompatible with the Emacs-22 emacsclient, so it was
changed as part of the inclusion into Emacs. If you want to grab the
tty, you have to request it explicitly with "-t" (or "-c").
