"This Emacs Session Has Clients" - How To Find Out Why?

From time to time, Cx Cc Emacs announces: "This Emacs session has clients, log out anyway?"

(I use Emacs 24beta on Windows 7, if that matters.)

I expected some files to be opened that were opened through emacsclientw.exe, but I do not see any.

(I have git config --global core.editor "/c/lang/emacs-24beta/bin/emacsclientw.exe")

Is there any way to find out which buffers have clients? (Or is there anything else to look for?)

Is there any way to find out which buffers have clients?

When a buffer has clients, the value of its variable server-buffer-clientswill not be zero.

(require 'cl)

(defvar server-buffers nil)

(defun show-server-buffers ()
  (interactive)
  (setq server-buffers nil)
  (let ((original-buffer (current-buffer)))
    (loop for buf in (buffer-list)
      do
      (progn
        (switch-to-buffer buf)
        (if (and
         server-buffer-clients
         (buffer-live-p buf))
        (add-to-list 'server-buffers buf))))
    (switch-to-buffer original-buffer)
    (message "server-buffers: %s" server-buffers)))
