> Thanks Martin for quick answer and fix, yes it is now working.

Pushed to master now.  Apparently, exiting from the minibuffer may
select a frame no less than four times here:

#1 in read_minibuf_unwind
  if (!EQ (exp_MB_frame, saved_selected_frame)
      && !NILP (exp_MB_frame))
    do_switch_frame (exp_MB_frame, 0, 0, Qt); /* This also sets
                                             minibuf_window */

#2 in read_minibuf_unwind
      else if (WINDOW_LIVE_P (calling_window))
        Fset_frame_selected_window (calling_frame, calling_window, Qnil);

#3 in read_minibuf_unwind
  /* Restore the selected frame. */
  if (!EQ (exp_MB_frame, saved_selected_frame)
      && !NILP (exp_MB_frame))
    do_switch_frame (saved_selected_frame, 0, 0, Qt);

#4 in read_minibuf
  if (FRAMEP (calling_frame)
      && FRAME_LIVE_P (XFRAME (calling_frame))
      && (!EQ (selected_frame, calling_frame)
          || (WINDOW_LIVE_P (XFRAME (calling_frame)->minibuffer_window)
              && !EQ (XWINDOW (XFRAME (calling_frame)->minibuffer_window)
                      ->frame,
                      calling_frame))))
    call2 (Qselect_frame_set_input_focus, calling_frame, Qnil);

These will confuse the hell out of any window manager (and of me).  Can
some knowledgeable soul tell us what all this code is supposed to do and
whether it could be refactored in some sane way?

Many thanks in advance, martin
