(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't
resolved at the time.)
It seems like this has been fixed in the 13 years since it was reported.
I did:
larsi@elva:~/src/emacs/trunk$ export ALTERNATE_EDITOR=nano
larsi@elva:~/src/emacs/trunk$ ./lib-src/emacsclient /tmp/foo
and that opened nano.
So I'm closing this bug report. If there's more to be done here, please
respond to the debbugs address and we'll reopen.
