Not exactly.
In the meanwhile, I noticed that the bug can be reproduced as
follows:
emacs -Q foo bar
M-x ediff-buffers ; to compare buffers foo and bar
; select buffer foo
C-x 5 2 ; display buffer foo in a 2nd window in new frame
; in the frame displaying buffers foo and bar
M-x delete-frame
Error: Attempt to delete a surrogate minibuffer frame
; select the frame displaying the Ediff control panel
M-x delete-frame
Success!
It seems this should be the other way round: the "surrogate
minibuffer attribute" should be given to the frame displaying the
Ediff control panel instead of the frame displaying buffers foo and bar.
