Done, both on the Emacs 23 branch and on the trunk (slightly different
patches were needed in each case).

My guess is that the error is coming from a `visibility' value of nil. And
`visibility' should probably not be nil anyway here - the frame should be
displayed visibly, presumably. There is no `visibility' parameter value given to
`x-create-frame-with-faces', so it must be coming up with that on its own when
it calls `x-create-frame'.
