[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

*Started Emacs 25.0.91 with 'emacs -Q'. Although the list of "Recent 
messages", below, does not show it, the Ediff Quit prompt in the 
Minibuffer is displayed as follows:

  Quit this Ediff session? (y or n)  switch-frame-

with the "  switch-frame-" characters being extraneous, of course. If 
one enters something other than 'y' or 'n', the re-prompt also contains 
the extraneous characters. So far, this is the only Minibuffer prompt I 
have encountered with this problem, though I must admit I have not done 
a lot of testing.

This is the same as bug#21797 and bug#22581.
