    This is due to the change:

    2005-12-31  Richard M. Stallman  <address@hidden>

            * minibuf.c (read_minibuf): Clear out all other minibuffer windows.

    Since I don't know the intention of this change, I can't provide a fix.

The purpose was to prevent outer-level minibuffers from visibly appearing
in other frames.  I will install a fix.
