I doubt this will help much, but just in case it does -
I got this backtrace when I clicked the `X' in a frame showing
*scratch*.  There were two frames showing *scratch*, and I clicked the
"X" in each.  Dunno which one the error was raised for.

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument frame-live-p #<dead frame *scratch* 0b54c8d8>)
  frame-selected-window(#<dead frame *scratch* 0b54c8d8>)
  menu-bar-non-minibuffer-window-p()
  redisplay_internal\ \(C\ function\)()


This was using my setup, but I don't think I have anything particular
that should affect this.  Dunno how to repro it, either with my setup or
from emacs -Q.

Feel free to close the bug if this info doesn't help at all.  I have no
more info about this.

Any idea how come redisplay got to call
menu-bar-non-minibuffer-window-p?

I do have this in my setup - these are the only occurrences of
that function in my code:

;; Add for Emacs < 22.  Rename item otherwise.
(define-key menu-bar-file-menu [new-file]
  '(menu-item "New File..." find-file
    :enable (or (not (fboundp 'menu-bar-non-minibuffer-window-p))
             (menu-bar-non-minibuffer-window-p))
    :help "Create and edit a new file"))

(define-key-after menu-bar-file-menu [new-directory]
  '(menu-item "New Directory..." menu-bar-create-directory
    :enable (or (not (fboundp 'menu-bar-non-minibuffer-window-p))
             (menu-bar-non-minibuffer-window-p))
    :help "Create a directory")
  'new-file)

I realize that :enable will cause that code to be run during
redisplay.  Probably this is the culprit code, but I have never
see that error before (and this code has been there a long time).

So maybe it's just a one-off thing.

Or maybe menu-bar-non-minibuffer-window-p should protect itself from
such calamities.  Martin, what do you think?

It should.  Just like `menu-bar-menu-frame-live-and-visible-p' does.
