The answer is probably that in order for a frame to be assigned as
minibuffer frame it doesn't need a window system window.  It needs the
window only at the time the minibuffer becomes active.  OTOH a child
frame needs the parent frame's windows system window immediately.

I wonder whether this bug is reproducible on X now that Noam restored
the wait for MapNotify call.
