Yep, it's a snippet of JavaScript, intended I think to avoid people
displaying Wikipedia content in their own frameset to make it look
like their own - very lazy (since they can run a mirror) and
anti-social (since bandwidth costs donations).

Anyway, it consists of one line in "wikibits.js" (somewhere in the
ever-changing skins directory structure, I'll let you find yours):

// Un-trap us from framesets
if( window.top != window ) window.top.location = window.location;
