URL bar isn't updated when clicking a link in a frame.

Build: 2001071408/Win2k
Just discovered this one myself; it dates from somewhere between 0.9
(2001-05-05-21) and 0.9.2 (2001-06-28-23); I'll do a better regression later. 
Anyway, the bug occurs iff the name of one of the visible frames is "top".  The
simplest HTML doc to set it off is:

<frameset><frame src="foo" name="top"></frameset>

The URL bar doesn't just keep the old page's value, it doesn't update---if
you've typed something else up there, then click, that something else will remain.

This problem exists whether you leave a page by clicking the Forward or Back
buttons, by clicking a link on the page, or by selecting a bookmark.  It does
not exist when you go to a page by pasting its URL in the body of the browser.

It would seem to be build-independent, as the reporter is running Win2K, and I
am running Linux/i686.
Bulk reassignin HTML FRAME/IFRAME bugs to Eric.
