I didn't read in too much detail, but does this have anything to do with 
the emacsclient executable from emacs-snapshot in the Ubuntu repository 
being called emacsclient.emacs-snapshot ?  On my system (similar setup), 
emacsclient is for emacs 22, and emacsclient.emacs-snapshot is from the 
snapshot package ...
