I am starting Emacs through screen, without X windows. So I started as:

gdb screen

then I do:

breakpoint x_error_quitter

It asks me for future loaded libraries, I said y.

Then I "run" and get screen and bash.

Then I start emacs as 

emacs --user admin --chdir /home/data1/protected (that is my home dir)

And then I connect to emacs as emacsclient

and evaluate (x-synchronize t)

and then if I connect each 4th or 5th time, not clearly known why,
then I get that bug, and X frame of new emacsclient is not appearing.

But back in debugger I do not see much, emacs as server is still
running. When I quit emacs, and screen, only then I can see backtrace
and it shows me nothing special related to emacs, just three lines.

Maybe you can help me, as I am doing something wrong, but I can replicate the 
bug.

If I just start emacs in X Window, and not in screen, in console,
under bash, without X Window, I do not get that bug, I tried repeating
it but I did not get it.

If I start it in console through screen, I get the bug.
