That's not necessarily a problem; the subflavor packages depend on emacs-bin-common so they could conceivably register the emacsclient alternative themselves and have the assurance that emacsclient is really installed. The *real* problem here is that emacsclient (probably) cannot be an alternative and a slave for the emacs alternative at the same time, so fixing this bug would require coordinating the change across emacs21, emacs-snapshot, xemacs21, zile... And it would probably break if people still have emacs20 packages installed, or cannot upgrade to the latest versions of all three packages for some reason...
