Ok, thanks.

I think I know what this is. It's the very particular case of the very
first redisplay + presence of a child freame, which copies glyphs from a
current matrix that is still clear, i.e. zeroed, so that glyph::frame
is zero and so on.

I wonder a bit - how did you come up with such a test case? :-)
Did you perhaps see this happening elsewhere? That would be interesting.
