The problem is not pc-selection mode, but how Emacs does
normal-erase-is-backspace in multi-tty situations.  Here's an even
simpler recipe, not involving pc-selection-mode or the daemon:

1. Add the following line to .emacs:

     (global-set-key [C-delete] 'kill-line)

2. emacs -nw -f server-start
3. emacsclient -c
4. C-h k C-backspace

  => <C-backspace> runs the command kill-line
