You can provide info on your configuration in the bug report. Of course, if you can narrow it down to a small part of your configuration, that will help. Look for things in your config such as non-nil `pop-up-frames'. Look for whatever you think you might have done that causes Ediff to use a separate frame for its control window. The general rule for narrowing down your config to find a problem cause is to use binary search: remove/comment-out half of your init file, then 3/4, then 7/8,... until you find the part that provokes the error. Binary search is very quick.
