Subject: b14: initial-frame-plist bug

Sender: kifer@CS.SunySB.EDU



Put this in .emacs and start it:

(setq initial-frame-plist 
       '(minibuffer nil))

This is supposed to create a minibufferless frame and a separate frame just
for the minibuffer.
After the smoke clears, XEmacs creates:

    1. A separate minibuffer (which is ok)
    2. A minibufferless frame (ok, again)
    3. Another frame with its own minibuffer (not good)
    4. Beeps and gives this message:

    Attempt to delete a surrogate minibuffer frame: #<x-frame "emacs" 0xb0e>


This also doesn't work in 19.15, but things are fine in 19.14.
