Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: emacs23
Emacs 23 and later have the neat feature of running as a daemon for
emacsclient to connect to. Furthermore, emacsclient will automatically
start a new daemon and then connect to it if one is not already running
in the background, if you set the alternative editor to the empty
string. That is, if you run emacsclient -a "" -c, emacsclient will
either connect to an existing daemon or start a new one and connect to
it. It starts the new one by running "emacs --daemon".
However, when I do emacsclient.emacs23 -a "" -c, instead of running
"emacs --daemon", it should run "emacs23 --daemon".
This makes a difference for the purposes of window matching in programs
like Docky.

emacsclient.emacs23 -a "" should start the daemon using emacs23, not emacs
