Well, that's a good question.  Maybe there is something
obvious I don't know.  I've been debugging and re-factoring
my init files and so I need to end Emacs to test the
initialization.  But, as I said, I usually am working
through emacsclient.  When I do C-x C-c it only ends
emacsclient, not the whole Emacs instance.  So I end up
doing M-x kill-emacs.  Is there a better way?

(By the way, I figured out that `file-exists-p' returns nil
for a symlink to a nonexistent target, so problem solved.)
