   Looking at this exchange really makes me suspect that these
   things should not be in C.  Every time Emacs updates we need
   recompilation?  Yuck.

In fact, I am pretty confident that emacsclient has always
printed its version onto stdout so I do not think we need to
recompile every week :)

   What was the reason we gave up calling out to a single generic
   scripted wrapper that the users can just munge to suit their
   tastes?

Good question. Though I find chriscool's implementation nicely
thought. With the modifications I made, this works as expected
with either emacs22 and emacs23 (aka CVS). What's more, how a
user could have tested if emacsclient was provided in the right
version using a generic scripted wrapper ?

I guess, chriscool should provide a more consistent emacsclient
wrapper with support for GNU Emacs version >= 21. This won't be
an enormous amount of work to do it (I can help him if he wants
to but I do not want to steal the paternity of his idea).
