Not that strange if you realise g-client has been developed as part of
emacspeak and if you use it with emacspeak, that file is not empty.

BTW, can someone tell me what emacs 23 is? I'm running from CVS and it reports
the version as emacs 22. I've seen a number of references to emacs 23, which
I've not heard of and didn't think existed (given that I would expect the CVS
to be the latest version).
