	`next-frame' should not choose a frame (e.g. *Backtrace*) that did
	not exist when it was invoked
Date: Wed, 2 Jan 2013 10:13:01 -0800

Set `special-display-regexps' or other so that `*Backtrace*' gets
displayed in its own (special-display) frame.
 
Evaluate the source code for `next-frame', then
M-x debug-on-entry next-frame, then C-x o.
 
When stepping through the debugger, the next frame should never be
*Backtrace* (unless a *Backtrace* frame existed before invoking `next
frame'), but it can be.  This is a bug IMO.
