When connecting to a host which runs "emacs --daemon" with "ssh -x" (so $DISPLAY is not set)
$ emacsclient FILENAME
says "Waiting for Emacs..." and does not open any frame.
It should instead work like "emacsclient -t FILENAME" and open a
terminal frame.

Hmm, according to the code in emacsclient.c, emacsclient should already
do the right thing when DISPLAY is not set. And I verified this by
doing
$ export DISPLAY=""
$ emacsclient -c FILENAME
=> FILENAME is opened in the terminal.

Thanks. I get the same too, I might have had an old emacsclient in my path, so
closing this bug.
