using CVS emacs, I use "emacs -daemon" and it executes the .emacs or
init fine. "--" or "-" both seem to work from a bash shell btw.

Are you sure there is no error in your .emacs? Did you run emacs -daemon
from the command line where you can see any error output?

Just to be sure - you dont expect emacs -c to run the .emacs?
