other-frame-window.el --daemon mode bug?

Hi,

`other-frame-window-mode', provided by "other-frame-window.el" works for me as
long as GNU Emacs isn't started in daemon mode.  In this case, I can't open a
new frame:

emacs -Q --daemon

Connect to the server:

emacsclient -c -n

In the '*scratch*' buffer enter and eval:

(require 'other-frame-window "/path/to/other-frame-window.el")
(other-frame-window-mode t)

'C-x 9 b' is supposed to open a buffer (defaults to the "*Messages*" buffer) in
another frame.  On pressing return, Emacs becomes stuck in the minibuffer.  The
command times out after a while and can be interrupted with 'C-g', but no frame
is created.

After firing up Emacs with 'emacs -Q', everything works as expected.

Can someone please confirm this?

The library comes as a GNU package, not included in my Emacs[1].  In case it's
a bug, can I just report it as an Emacs bug?

Thx for any help

Toto
