In Emacs 23.2 and 23.1, on OS X, when I use emacsclient -t, under a
certain condition when I have a region in a buffer made with the
mouse, the buffer in emacsclient is frozen until I click the mouse in
the other buffer with the region (sometimes C-g will work too).
It's pretty easy to repeat. Highlight a region with the mouse, switch
to a terminal running emacsclient -t and no input will have an affect,
even C-g. It's not a problem if the region was created by setting a
mark and moving the point.
Is this a problem with Emacs, or is there something I can do when
emacsclient starts to avoid the problem if I have created a region
with the mouse thinking I'll be able to yank it into the new
emacsclient buffer?

It's a problem in the implementation of the feature related to the
variable mouse-region-delete-keys.
This implementation has various other similar annoying side-effects :-(
Hopefully, we'll get that fixed in Emacs-24.

I'm using the latest emacs-snapshot (emacs23) on Ubuntu. I have
(server-start) in my .emacs file. When I try to edit a file through
emacsclient, I got the following message:
$ emacsclient somefile
Waiting for Emacs...
-error Unknown&_command:&_/home/lirh/somefile
What's wrong with this? How can I make it work?

That's probably the emacsclient from a previous version of emacs, not
snapshot. Try emacsclient.emacs-snapshot somefile , instead.

Yes, that's the problem, it now works, thank you.

Could be you have more than one emacsclient programme in your search
PATH and the wrong one is found ...
