This means Emacs started creating the frame, but didn't finish that
process. A new frame is recorded in the frame list only when it is
completely set up. The question is: what happens during that process
which prevents it from completing?
At this point, it looks like instrumenting x-create-frame to write
traces to some file might tell what causes that function to stop doing
its job half way through.

Was the deleted frame deleted from the frame list?
