Yes, it does.  I was mistaken about that (I confused this bug with another).

But are you proposing to redefine `display-buffer-normalize-specifiers-1' that
way for Emacs, or are you just proposing that I redefine it locally for myself
that way?

The latter would not address (fix) the bug.  Users (not just me) should not have
`C-x 4 f' etc. change its behavior - those commands should still use another
frame (for non-nil `pop-up-frames'), as they have always done.

If you implement this change in Emacs, then yes, please close the bug, as your
redefinition seems to fix it.
