Interesting.  And you used the -c flag for emacsclient in both cases,
yes?

Ok, let's try with the old advice mechanism:

(defadvice server-switch-buffer (around test activate)
  (when (ad-get-arg 0) ad-do-it))

You can (with a newly started server) also M-x debug-on-entry
select-frame-set-input-focus.  If you get a popping up debugger after
hitting C-x #, please send us the backtrace.
