I'll try to answer this a bit more broadly: I'd like the code to be more
resilient, and not make implicit assumptions about the absence of of
features on ttys, which when false, leads to such hard to detect errors.

Consider the internal border case. In master, FRAME_INTERNAL_BORDER
happens to return 0 in master. But that might change, if I ever get
setting internal borders to work for tty child frames, to draw the
border there.
