I would prefer not to; right now the presence of
deprecated_selected_frame is a good warning sign.  I can find you a
copy if you want to look at individual places that should be

I think the changes are right in this case, though.  Could you take a
look at those two functions (the change to make is obvious) and see if
that fixes your problem?
