Hi! The page that embed the phpBB iframe, just display an iframe, so it should not be considered to be indexed as is by spiders. Spiders will go to index a page that is named forum or community etc, that they found in WP, and that contain an iframe.
They can so follow to index the real phpBB, if the spider is able to do or is instructed to do this.
So what will be indexed would be real phpBB forums pages. Expecially if on some WP page, you put a direct link to phpBB.
Could be pushed some keywords or even as hidden content of the post on the WP forum page. Better just keywords and description in case. Because the content will lead maybe to what you have suppose.
So the answer about spiders is no, for what my experience. I see google spider often here, +- every time i come!
About index, if i'm not wrong, has been added on code to correctly redirect on some circumstance, so i will return over to see to fix if possible and avoid, even if as said, it may do not mean nothing for spiders. All pages points to same resource, with a blank content, except an iframe, that if followed, lead to different content (may a post or topic (last topic widget urls))
p.s so interested on this, any hint or correction very appreciated and as said, i will return over this as soon.
