What I'm seeing here is, when you click on one of the entries (or press
RET), `xref-goto-xref' doesn't delete the frame displaying the xref
window (nor does the window get deleted, naturally).
That screws things up the subsequent times the xref buffer, and its
window, are used. The frame that's always "used for the jump", is the
one *xref* was popped from originally.
Isn't this a bug in `quit-window'? I can reproduce it this way:
(setq special-display-regexps (list "^\\*"))
C-h f quit-window --> that creates a new frame
q --> the frame is simply buried
'C-u q' does the trick, though.
