SUMMARY:

1] You're correct, but I haven't found the culprit yet.

2] Performing C-x k on the w3m buffer causes w3m to record
   the session as 'crashed', which in turn causes the next
   w3m session (M-x w3m) to ask if one wishes to restore it.

3] My grepping turned up nothing:

   $ grep -rcl "\*server\*" ~/.emacs.d
   /home/optimum/.emacs.d_orig/history
   $ grep -rcl "\*server\*" /usr/share/emacs*
   /usr/share/emacs/24.5/lisp/server.elc
   $ grep -rcl "\*server\*" /usr/lib/emacs*

   Without the asterisks, the above grepping found the word
   "server" in 310 files.

4] Searching my .emacs file tuned up nothing either.

CONCLUSIONS:

1] This is my problem, and I'll report back if/when I
   figure it out. In the meantime, if anyone else reports
   anything similar, it would be useful for us to be in
   touch.

2] Maybe emacs-w3m should locally remap C-x k to whatever
   is the lcoal binding for C-c C-w (I don't emacs open now
   to look), so that it gracefully closes its session with
   w3m and avoids w3m reporting a crashed session.
