Class hints are only set by Emacs under X toolkit and no toolkit builds.
On GTK builds, it's set by GTK to a value set during GTK initialization.

BTW, the `name' frame parameter is rather special, since it's set by
`x-create-frame' binding special values to `x-resource-name' and
`x-resource-class' during frame creation.  So for the record, changing
the `name' parameter of a frame after it is created will not change the
values of the WM_CLASS and WM_NAME properties.
