This reproduces on master with emacs -Q as well as emacs-27.

emacs -Q

Make sure Emacs is positioned above another app

M-: (make-frame `((parent-frame . ,(window-frame))))

Then, in child frame:

M-: (lower-frame)

This causes the parent frame and child frame to lower below the other
app. I believe, according to the docs, it should do nothing because
there is only one child frame.

Commit ad2567fb1efced752352096f345c69f88e1ff405 pushed to master,
which should fix this.

I'm sure this worked when I wrote the NS child window code, but I
can't find any indication that the API changed. Anyway, the new code
works as far as I can see.
