bug#1708: 23.0.60; g_main_context_prepare() called recursively

[Markus Triska]

>From OSX 10.4, I log in via ssh to a remote machine R running Ubuntu
jaunty, and there do:

   $ emacs -nw -Q -f server-start

In another terminal in OSX, I again ssh to R, and there do:

   $ emacsclient -c

As expected, I get an X frame on the local machine (OSX). Now I close
the terminal in which I started the remote emacsclient, thus killing
the client. The remote server at this point shows the message:

   server: Connection lost to X server `localhost:11.0'

Now I again ssh to R, and again do there:

   $ emacsclient -c

Now, only a blank frame shows up, and the remote server repeatedly
shows the following message:

 (emacs:11624): GLib-WARNING **: g_main_context_prepare() called
   recursively from within a source's check() or prepare() member.

Information about Emacs on the remote machine R:

This also works when I ssh from R to R itself, i.e., I can reproduce
the problem in Ubuntu jaunty alone as well.
