Yes.  What you _should_ have seen is this message:

emacsclient: can't find socket; have you started the server?

but the relevant code in emacsclient.c fails to store the ENOENT that
was reported for the missing socket in a safe place and wrongly reuses
errno when it is already overwritten, see errno(3).  This is fixed in
emacs22, though.

Cheers,
