Description
I've been using magit (and then with-editor) with a custom installation of Emacs 28.2 (and earlier from 27.1) without problem. After an update of Emacs to 29.1, I have a warning on opening the magit status:
■ Warning (with-editor): Cannot determine a suitable Emacsclient
Determining an Emacsclient executable suitable for the
current Emacs instance failed. For more information
please see https://github.com/magit/magit/wiki/Emacsclient.
Running with-editor-debug gives:

I'm not using TCP (local to a machine) so the lack of ~/.emacs.d/server/ shouldn't be a problem.
The proper emacsclient-fsf executable is found: this upstream, self compiled Emacs 29.1 is installed under /usr/local/stow/emacs-29.1 and linked under /usr/local/bin using stow. So this looks good.
A specific thing of my setup (maybe?) is that I'm running an Emacs server using systemd, but the issue is from a different Emacs instance. I prefer using an Emacs instance per project, and the systemd server is only there to support automation like hooking Firefox/Thunderbird to TB. Could this be an issue?
When running manually the correctly found emacsclient, it works fine and connect to the systemd background instance (as expected).
Thanks
