25.0.50; doc string of `other-buffer': FRAME |
Date: |

The description in (elisp)Buffer List is OK. But the doc string is not.
The doc string says:
If the optional third argument FRAME is non-nil, use that frame's...
It is meaningless to say "that frame" - what frame?
It should say something like what the manual says. E.g., "... use
FRAME's...". Or (better) "If non-nil, FRAME is the frame used...".
IOW, non-nil is not enough; FRAME must be a frame if not nil.

Should be fixed with commit 31d58d4..0c5fa36 on master/trunk.
Bug closed.
