This seems to have been fixed by this commit on current master:

commit aa89c84e00d8dc85100e6fedab7631c415e6364d
Author: Juri Linkov <juri@linkov.net>
Date:   Wed Nov 27 01:43:49 2019 +0200

    message uses minibuffer-message in the active minibuffer (bug#17272 
bug#19064)

I'm therefore closing this bug report now.  If that is incorrect, and
this is still an issue, please reply to this email (use "Reply to all"
in your email client) and we can reopen the bug report.
