Hi Peter:
I have a very similar setup: Fedora 20 and Emacs 24.3.1. However, note,
we do not support the development version of emacs; see

Works for me.

Honestly, I have never gotten daemon to work. With modern X accelerators
like x2go and other nxclient variants that is the way I recommend doing things.

I would stick to released versions of emacs and emacsclient. If you really
want to debug unreleased versions, then you are on your own.
