(frame-list)
(#<frame emacs@tucano.isti.cnr.it 0x116995f8> #<frame F1 0xc41680>)

(next-frame)
#<frame F1 0xc41680>

(delete-frame (next-frame))
^^
shows the bug (I won't do it now because I am working remotely)

A shell inside Emacs does not have the environment I am looking for, so
the only way I am left with is to start a new terminal inside Screen.

But this is a workaround to a bug, not a solution.  So it appears to me
that I should indeed file a new bug report, right?
