If you evaluate '(start-process "foo" " foo" "ls" 10)' an error occurs
since 10 is not of type sequence. Then if you try to quit emacs the same
error occurs which makes it impossible to quit emacs without killing
it.

IIUC, start-process contains code which is supposed to handle this kind
of thing:
/* If an error occurs and we can't start the process, we want to
remove it from the process list.
But it doesn't seem to work. Eg:
(start-process "foo" "foo" "FOO" )
-> (file-error "Searching for program" "no such file or directory" "FOO")
yet
(process-list)
-> (#<process foo>)
(This was previously reported as http://debbugs.gnu.org/7021 ).
It works as it should in Emacs 23.1, but not in 23.2 or later.
By experiment, reverting the 2009-08-13 change to start_process_unwind
("Use pid == -2 to mean no process") seems to fix it, ie:
*** src/process.c 2011-11-28 08:20:58 +0000
--- src/process.c 2011-12-06 02:40:35 +0000
***************

abort ();
/* Was PROC started successfully? */
! if (XPROCESS (proc)->pid == -1)
remove_process (proc);
return Qnil;
--- 1522,1528 ----
abort ();
/* Was PROC started successfully? */
! if (XPROCESS (proc)->pid <= 0)
remove_process (proc);
return Qnil;

But that can't be a complete solution, since it breaks gdb:
M-x gdb RET gdb -i=mi ls RET
gdb-init-1: Wrong type argument: processp, nil

The obvious thing, or some variation of it, seems to work:
*** src/process.c 2011-11-28 08:20:58 +0000
--- src/process.c 2011-12-06 03:49:04 +0000

--- 1521,1529 ----
if (!PROCESSP (proc))

! /* Was PROC started successfully?
! -2 is used for a pty with no process, eg for gdb. */
! if (XPROCESS (proc)->pid <= 0 && XPROCESS (proc)->pid != -2)
remove_process (proc);
return Qnil;
