(i) I start emacs -Q --load=foo.el
(ii) C-x 5 2  ; this leaves three frames, one being the minibuffer
  frame.
(iii) C-x b   ; leaves point in the minibuffer.
(iv) C-x 5 o  ; moves to the other normal frame.
(v) C-r  C-x 8 RET SPACE RET ; invokes a recursive minibuffer

At this stage, point is in the minibuffer, exactly as after (iii).  I
don't see this as a failure.

Where do you see the failure happening with that quick and dirty patch?
