What is the ns window system? On w32 that function was renamed to
x-focus-frame a few weeks back, probably the wrong version was given
priority during the merge. Generally if the function takes the same
arguments, returns the same value and does the same thing, having a
different name for different window systems' implementations just gets
in the way.
