  struct frame *sf = SELECTED_FRAME ();

I had figured out that much.  SELECTED_FRAME is defined in frame.h as:

#define SELECTED_FRAME()                                \
     ((FRAMEP (selected_frame)                          \
       && FRAME_LIVE_P (XFRAME (selected_frame)))       \
      ? XFRAME (selected_frame)                         \
      : (abort (), (struct frame *) 0))
         ^^^^^

In Milan's earlier trace, he had:

        w = (struct window *) 0xf68140

redisplay_internal has:

  struct window *w = XWINDOW (selected_window);
  struct frame *f = XFRAME (w->frame);

but Emacs annot access memory at address 0xf68140, of course (assuming
selected_frame is w->frame).
