bug#18403: 24.4.50; emacsclient sometimes hangs on exit with Lucid GUI client

[Christoph Scholtes]

Emacs 24 (r117814) compiled with Lucid toolkit.

Steps to reproduce:

emacs --daemon -q
emacsclient -c
Exit GUI client with `C-x C-c' or evaluate `(kill-emacs)' in *scratch*.

Emacsclient will hang with `Waiting for Emacs...' at the shell prompt
and not exit. In case of `(kill-emacs)', it will kill the daemon
correctly, but emacsclient hangs.

I attached a debugger and Emacs seems to be stuck in the do..while loop around
line 1734 of `emacsclient.c'.

I tried same procedure with Emacs compiled with GTK3 and it works
correctly. emacsclient exits at the prompt upon executing either `C-x
C-c' or (kill-emacs).

emacsclient -t also works correctly and emacsclient exits after
executing `C-x C-c'.
