That's not what I see with the trunk of Emacs-CVS startd with "emacs -Q", so
either it's been fixed, or it depends on some config of yours. Try it with
"emacs -Q" first.

I think so, yes.

Yes, starting from "emacs -Q" with as recent an Emacs as you can.

The error is on my side. :-)

I use my own `display-buffer-function' to have emacs split windows
horizontally by default. And, of course, I forgot to handle the
pop-up-frames case. Now I tried adding it, but I don't get it right. How
do I create a new frame and display a given buffer in it?

Yes, that works. Thanks a lot.
