From: David Bremner <bremner@debian.org>

The behaviour of "emacsclient --eval nil" changed from emacs23 to
emacs24, and in emacs24 it prints 'nil' rather than an empty string.

(format "%S" foo) produces a sexpr form of foo, and is consistent
between the two versions.

This fixes another test failure on emacs24. 

I guess maybe all test_emacs output could be canonicalized this way,
but I suspect that would be pretty disruptive.
