I always work with two frames open; one for Gnus, and one for other
stuff (minor things like programming, the actual work, etc.).

It happens to me very often that I mistakenly press `C-z' when I meant
to press `C-x', and my XEmacs gets iconified.  So far so good.  But
when I de-iconify it, I get only *one* frame (the Gnus frame).  The
second frame is gone!  (frame-list) still yields two frames, and
`C-x 5 o' does nothing.  Then I usually call (delete-frame) on the
non-existent frame to remove it from the frame-list.

I tried to repeat it without Gnus, but I cannot always repeat it.  I
yet have to find a reliable test-case.

Does that happen to others?  How is it possible for XEmacs to "lose"
an X window just like that, without ever giving an error, or a warning
to the user?
