I didn't understand what you meant by "instance". I think I do now -- you mean
output_method, output_data, and terminal members of struct frame? If so, these
are (trivially) figured out for the initial frame, they are set to special
values. And we delete that initial frame during startup, as soon as we can.
So I don't think I understand the concerns. What specific problems could be
caused by retaining this initial frame?
