??? Why?  In any case, we do this stuff all over the place.  A random
example:

      else if ((w != XWINDOW (minibuf_window)
		|| minibuf_level == 0)
	       /* When buffer is nonempty, redisplay window normally.  */
	       && BUF_Z (XBUFFER (w->contents)) == BUF_BEG (XBUFFER (w->contents))
	       /* Quail displays non-mini buffers in minibuffer window.
		  In that case, redisplay the window normally.  */
	       && !NILP (Fmemq (w->contents, Vminibuffer_list)))
