bug#772: 23.0.60; cannot open multiple TTY frames using emacsclient -t

[Yoshiaki Kasahara]

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I cannot open multiple TTY frames of an Emacs instance now.  I usually
open two Emacs frames inside a 'screen' session using emacsclient -t,
but it is not working now.

When I try to open the second frame in a different tty, the first
frame on the first tty shows *scratch* buffer.  Nothing happens on the
second tty.  When I kill the second emacsclient, the first client dies
together.

I'm not sure when the symptom (or functional change?) started to
occur, because I hadn't updated my source tree for about a month.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/local/share/emacs/23.0.60/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
